{Pikeville, Kentucky}...William Johnny Slone, 52, of Mouthcard, was arrested Monday, just days after he was indicted by a Pike County grand jury on a murder charge in the death of Jonathan Leon “Big John” Looney, 40, of Maxie, Virginia. Looney's badly decomposed body was found in a garage at Slone’s residence last year. Kentucky State Police Det. Jimmy Anderson says Slone killed Looney with a single gunshot to the head. Pike Commonwealth’s Attorney Rick Bartley says Looney was living at the residence with Slone's daughter. Slone was set to be arraigned before Pike Circuit Judge Eddie Coleman on Wednesday. He is also due back in court on July 13th in relation to two drug trafficking indictments.
