Police found Jesse and Elizabeth Kendrick dead in their north Danville
condominium.
Later that week, they found 33-year-old Archie Moore stuffed inside a closet
in a nearby apartment.
All three victims were wrapped in a sheet and had been shot in the head.
Commonwealth's Attorney Bill Fuller says Walton sprayed one corpse with
cologne to cover up the stench, and later told fellow prisoners about the
killings.
Walton will be sentenced at the end of this month.

What the Chapins don't know, is they may be able to have that same peace of
mind, without their 20 dollar monthly service fee.
In the Roanoke area, with a disconnected GTE cellular phone, you can dial
pound-311, and you'll connect with the roaming network that will let you use a
credit card or call collect, for about a dollar-twenty five a minute.
If you have a disconnected U.S. Cellular phone... you can NOT access the
roaming system... but if you switch your phone from system A over to system B,
you can still access the roaming network through GTE.
And no matter what system you're on, if you are in range of a tower, you
can dial 911.
But customers may not be getting the full story from cellular sales people.
We called several Roanoke sales offices and asked them if we could use our
telephone after it is disconnected...
One GTE rep said yes we could, another didn't know and another said
told us we couldn't us a credit card OR dial 911.
U.S cellular sales reps correctly told us we couldn't use a credit card on
THEIR system with a disconnected phone, but 2 also told us we couln't dial 911.
A U.S. Cellular official told us those salespeople are misinformed, saying "We
try to train them and give them as much information as we can, unfortunately in
any industry you change personnel often, and sometimes, occasionally, you might
miss one."
Cline says he sent a memo to his sales force, telling them that all phones,
regardless of status, can dial 911.
The Chapins say, given the option, they'll consider disconnecting service,
and using a credit card.

Before you disconnect your cellular service... here are some things to
