Gene W. Williamson was 23 when he was found fatally shot in the head in his car on the evening of February 9, 1979, in the driveway of an apartment building at 1311 21st Street in Des Moines, Iowa. Reports indicate he was apparently shot while pulling into the parking lot.

Investigators briefly arrested two relatives, 35-year-old Jesus Garcia and his 13-year-old nephew Alfredo Garcia, and charged them with first-degree murder. Those charges were later dropped after witnesses were found to have given false information, and both were released. Williamson had previously been questioned in connection with the murder of attorney Harry Hoffman but was never charged in that case. No other suspects were identified and the murder remains unsolved.

Does anyone have information about Gene Williamson, his movements in Des Moines around February 1979, or about the case that could help investigators?
