Murder Suspect Wanted for 3 Years in Millington Teen's Killing Caught in Slovenia
Authorities say the 23-year-old fled for three years before Interpol and Slovenian police confirmed his identity through fingerprints.
- On Wednesday, the U.S. Marshals Service announced that 23-year-old Seth Walls was arrested in Ljubljana, Slovenia, ending a three-year manhunt for the suspect in the 2022 killing of 15-year-old Haley Reedy in Millington, Tennessee.
- Walls originally faced reckless homicide charges but fled after posting a $10,000 bond; a Shelby County Grand Jury later indicted him on second-degree murder and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon.
- Authorities confirmed his identity using fingerprints provided by Interpol after he gave a fake name on Saturday, September 12, while the Shelby County medical examiner had previously ruled the teen's death a homicide.
- Reedy's mother, Brandee Jones, told The Tennessean she was "very shocked and relieved," while Millington Mayor Larry Dagen stated the arrest offers "an opportunity for justice to be done."
- Walls remains detained in Slovenia awaiting extradition to Shelby County, Tennessee, as Shelby County Sheriff Anthony Buckner said, "We will continue working with the District Attorney's Office to bring Walls back.
