67: MURDER: The Moses Lake Bombings

67: MURDER: The Moses Lake Bombings

On the morning of August 2, 2008, 69-year-old William “Bill” Walker was at his workshop near Moses Lake, Washington, when an explosion suddenly went off, killing him instantly. Hours later, just after midnight on August 3, another blast ripped through the home of 53-year-old Javier Adame, just miles away, also killing him instantly.

Investigators were stunned by the two deadly explosions happening so close in proximity and in time. As they pieced together the scenes, they realized both deaths were caused by carefully concealed pipe bombs, manufactured by the same person or people. Despite this connection, investigators could never find a link between the victims, or a clear reason why anyone would want them dead.

It’s been over 16 years since Bill and Javier were murdered, and investigators are still searching for the person, or people, responsible…

Between 9:00 and 10:00 am on August 2, 2008, Bill Walker was killed by a pipe bomb concealed inside a marine battery charger at his home on Fourth Street Northeast, about four miles east of Moses Lake, Washington.

Then, at around 12:30 am on August 3, Javier Adame was killed by a similar pipe bomb hidden inside a police scanner left outside his home on Stratford Road Northeast, just outside the Moses Lake city limits.

Investigators determined that the pipe bombs used to kill both men were manufactured by the same unknown individual or group.

Anyone with information about the murders of Bill Walker and Javier Adame is urged to contact the Grant County Sheriff’s Office at (509) 754-2018. A reward is available for information leading to an arrest.
