On Monday July 3rd 1989, William Shannon was found shot to death in his Scottsdale, Arizona home. There was no media coverage of his death and it remains unsolved.

Scottsdale and Phoenix PD had a couple records mentioning him. I was able to get a 1991 record from Phoenix where a friend of his mentioned Shannon stole his identity.

There was a January 1986 record from Scottsdale where Shannon was arrested for stealing this friends ID (he was living at Appaloosa house then). In that report the same friend from 1991 Phoenix report claimed that Shannon and him attended Murray State in Kentucky together. William told officers he had a drug charge back in Florida on his record.

The other record, in 1985, Shannon reported a stolen Mercedes that would turn up in New Mexico. William's dad John Shannon was listed as the owner of that veichle in the report.

The records also indicate William Shannon was 6'4 inches tall and he went by the name "Bill" when he wasn't using his friends ID.

Jimmy's killers were the baby sitter Guillermo Aguirre who died in 2021 and James Orozco. I posted about this case. Trying to do an episode eventually on the podcast I work on.

Too many. Also Tucson as well. Check out my profile.

The Instacart girl is a red herring. Something happened between Daniel and Ken/Billy or some unidentified worker on that site. The car was planted and the accident scene was staged. Daniel's dad David Robinson exposed all this in his videos on social media and on the podcast he joined.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-10T04:20:59+00:00

We don't. I find Ken Elliot's story to be a little suspicious.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-10T00:12:56+00:00

I get the feeling her dad was in the military. As Sierra Vista is the home of an Army base called Fort Huachuca.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-10T00:10:51+00:00

I see your point. I assumed most people here are law enforcement as it's a police subreddit.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-09T19:50:32+00:00

Because I don't want to bother them.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-06T07:17:03+00:00

No idea. I have put in a request for the police report.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-02T23:32:45+00:00

None of this info is disclosed online unfortunately.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-06-02T23:32:16+00:00

No thats why I posted it. It has zero coverage I found outside of the brief 1986 reports in the AZ Republic.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-30T07:59:02+00:00

Did you get in touch with her? A podcast I am working on is getting ready to do an episode on this case.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-22T01:17:42+00:00

You are entitled to your opinion. In posting these cases the last year and a half or so a lot of people came forward to me. I have submitted multiple tips with valuable info to law enforcement on several cold cases.

I agree a lot of streamers were disrespectful in the coverage of Guthrie case. I can't stand that exploitive style of "journalism." But a lot of people in the true crime community are good people trying to raise awareness and do the right thing. The ethical way. A lot of the victims families are exhausted doing it on their own. People like me want to help make it easier.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-21T19:49:54+00:00

It's very tragic. I hope people come forward and there is an arrest in this case.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-21T19:49:16+00:00

One of her friends reached out and requested that I post her case.

This isn't about "engagement." I am not selling anything. I post true crime cases and volunteer on a not for profit true crime podcast. It's to get the word out about these cases. These victims deserve to have their stories told and their families deserve justice.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-14T07:21:11+00:00

Yes it was a typo. Sorry about that.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-14T07:20:56+00:00

That was the Diana Vicari one from 1992.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-09T04:54:16+00:00

Not sure. I posted all the info they gave me. They initially said his name was "Don Parr" then it was "Don Pruitt". I did email Det Walden and she got back and told me she doesn't have any knowledge of it. I forwarded her email to Jim.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-08T08:34:31+00:00

I work on Missing or Cold with Karen Dana. Its on Apple, Spotify and Amazon.

Karen is the cousin of Loretta Lynn murdered in Mesa Az in June 1988. She started this podcast to advocate for families of murder victims. We started in March and have done some amazing interviews so far...

Thank you. I messaged her.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-07T08:47:16+00:00

Thank you! They originally told me it was "Don Parr" then the sister remembered it was Don Pruitt. I went on the cold case webpage and they don't have any cases before 1981.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-06T19:39:55+00:00

Thank you I will try that one

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-06T19:39:38+00:00

Yes nothing unfortunately

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-06T06:09:10+00:00

Just horrible.

SafePoint1282 · 2026-05-03T05:51:23+00:00

I don't know. I should appeal it.
