Investigation Discovery show ‘Reasonable Doubt’ to examine 2014 Henrico murder
Table of Contents
A 2014 Henrico murder will be the focus of the July 26 episode of Reasonable Doubt, a series on Investigation Discovery that examines controversial murder cases nationally.
The show will air at 10 p.m. EST and will feature an examination of the murder of Lakeside resident Roy Fuller and subsequent conviction of his longtime friend, Bruce Walton.
In the episode, retired homicide detective Chris Anderson and criminal defense attorney Fatima Silva use their resources and expertise to review the case.
Fuller was found by a family member dead with more than 100 stab wounds in his home in the 5900 block Hermitage Road in April 2014. A week later, Walton used his credit card and was arrested and charged in the case, even though there was limited physical evidence connecting him to the crime.
Henrico Commonwealth’s Attorney Shannon Taylor, whose team prosecuted Walton, told WTVR-TV in 2015 that the office was “able to present a case that showed there was no other reasonable explanation for how Fuller could have been killed.”
A jury convicted Walton and he received a life sentence plus 28 years, but maintained his innocence throughout. His sisters, who appear on the episode, also are confident that he didn’t kill Fuller.
Following Monday’s airing, the episode, titled “Deadhead,” will begin streaming on discovery+ beginning Sept. 21.
