Nathan "Shane" Walton was murdered this week, and yet there's surprisingly little reaction from Lincolnites. Local media have mentioned the case here and there. It seems like there would be more hullabaloo over such a brutal assault in the middle of a street.
What does it take to get people fired up over a murder? This case would seem to have several factors that would increase local interest: it occurred out in the open on a public street; it was brutal; the victim had a low IQ; the victim had no known ties to gangs nor any indication that he "deserved" this end because of his actions or affiliations.
If you have any relevant information for the investigators, please call Crime Stoppers at 402-475-3600. Two people (or more) need to face the consequences for their actions. Don't let them get off free.

See what your friends and neighbors have to say about this.
There is more to this story that will come out soon. I think it’s sad all around, and folks will likely agree if we hear “the rest of the story.”
How brutal. I’m also hoping there is much more to this story than is being reported. Lets hope that the police will catch whoever is responsible for this very soon (and the other violent crimes in the past few weeks as well).
I can’t stop thinking about this case. It’s constantly in my head. I hope the perpetrators are caught, and soon. This whole thing makes me sick and incredibly, incredibly sad.
