Tucson, AZ, November 5, 2026 — Tucson Police have launched an investigation into a City of Tucson Prosecutor, Matthew Walker, and his wife, Shannon Walker, concerning allegations of faking evidence. The probe centers on claims that forged emails were instrumental in the decision to revoke Lane Myers’ probation and subsequently sentence him to prison.
The investigation is reportedly examining electronic devices that were seized from the Walkers’ residence. These devices are expected to be analyzed as part of the process to determine the validity of the alleged fraudulent emails. The central accusation is that these emails were fabricated and then utilized in legal proceedings against Lane Myers, leading to the revocation of his probation and his incarceration.
Details regarding the specific content of the emails, the exact timeline of their alleged creation and use, or the precise nature of Lane Myers’ original probation terms were not immediately available. The City of Tucson Prosecutor’s office has not yet released a statement regarding the ongoing police investigation. Information on potential charges or disciplinary actions against Matthew Walker is also pending the outcome of the police inquiry.
The investigation aims to ascertain whether evidence was indeed falsified and if that falsified evidence directly contributed to the legal outcome for Lane Myers. The police department has not provided specific dates for when the alleged evidence faking occurred or when the investigation commenced. The current status of Lane Myers in relation to his probation revocation and prison sentence is also not detailed.
The examination of seized electronic devices is a critical step in such investigations, as it can provide digital forensic evidence to support or refute the allegations. The public awaits further updates as Tucson Police continue their work on this case.
