Walter Scott (vocalist)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Walter Scott (born Walter Notheis, Jr.) (February 7, 1943 – December 28, 1983) was the lead singer for Bob Kuban And The In-Men, a St. Louis, Missouri-based rock 'n' roll band that enjoyed brief national popularity during the 1960s. Scott sang lead on the group's nationwide hit, The Cheater.
Scott disappeared shortly after Christmas, 1983. In April, 1987 Scott's body, having been hog-tied and shot in the back, was found floating face-down in a cistern. Scott's second wife, JoAnn (Calceterra), pled guilty to hindering prosecution in his murder. She received a five year sentence. Her boyfriend (whom she married in 1986), James H. Williams Sr., was found guilty of two counts of capital murder in the deaths of his previous wife, Sharon Williams, and Walter Scott.
The Scott murder and subsequent investigation are documented in the book The Cheaters: The Walter Scott Murder.
