The unsolved murder of Anthony Wesley Stone

Posted on 12/10/2020

Anthony Stone was an inmate at the Yatala Labour Prison.

At about 2.45 pm on 12 October 1989 the 34-year old was present in the yard during a meeting with about 90 other prisoners.

During this meeting Mr Stone was fatally stabbed with a knife believed to have been removed from the prison kitchen.

A fellow inmate was subsequently arrested and charged with Mr Stone’s murder.

That charge was later withdrawn.

While the person remains the suspect in this matter, further evidence is required before a fresh murder charge can be laid.

A reward of up to $200,000 is on offer to anyone who provides information leading to a conviction in the case.
