It’s interesting and outrageous how the press tried to play this murder off as not cop related. We now know it was a horrendous case of anti-cop torture and murder.

Police have arrested two people in connection to the murder of Abilene police officer Don Allen.


Violetta Walter, 30 and Phillip Walter, 29 were taken into custody at a south side apartment complex in the 1000 block of South Clack in Abilene under arrest warrants obtained by the Texas Rangers. They were arrested for 1st degree felony murder, which in Texas can carry a sentence ranging from five to 99 years, or life.

Their bond is set at $500,000 each.

The investigation is still underway and evidence is being processed.

Police said they linked the suspects to property taken from Don Allen’s residence. Additionally, physical evidence recovered at the scene has linked the suspects to the crime. Police said they don’t believe anyone else is involved in the homicide.
