A father of 6 is found murdered
Richard Dan Edmonson, a 48-year-old man from San Antonio, Texas, was tragically found dead on October 16, 1983. He was discovered by a security guard at The University of Texas at San Antonio, near John Peace Boulevard and Loop 1604. Edmonson had been shot multiple times in the head, and it appeared that he had been shot at another location before being dumped at the scene. He was wearing a plaid shirt, blue jeans, and western-style boots at the time of his death.
Edmonson was a father of six children, with the youngest being nine years old and the oldest being 18. Despite the passage of time, the case remains unsolved, and the San Antonio Police Department's Cold Case Squad continues to investigate. The lack of leads has made it difficult to identify any suspects or bring anyone to justice for his murder.
The investigation into Richard Dan Edmonson's death has faced numerous challenges over the years. The evidence at the scene suggested that Edmonson was murdered elsewhere and then transported to the location where his body was found. This has complicated the efforts to trace the events leading up to his death and identify potential suspects. The San Antonio Police Department has repeatedly appealed to the public for any information that might help solve the case, but so far, no significant breakthroughs have been made.
The unsolved nature of this case has left Edmonson's family and the community seeking closure. The San Antonio Police Department continues to encourage anyone with information to come forward and assist in the investigation. The hope remains that one day, justice will be served for Richard Dan Edmonson and his loved ones.
