KPRC2 Brandon Walker
Dylan Walker, 27, was arrested and charged with tampering with evidence. KPRC 2 spoke with the Jasper County Jail who said Walker posted a $125,000 bond.
Walker’s mother said she is shocked her son was charged because she believes Walker did everything to help since he was the person who submitted the Crime Stoppers tips that led authorities to Olson’s body.
Court documents confirmed Walker was the one who called in the anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers.

My commentary:
The mother of Dylan Walker should not be shocked at all!
According to official charging documents filed a few weeks ago against Theresa Balboa, Dylan Walker met Theresa Balboa in Cleveland, TX.
He drove her south . . . 68 miles to Webster, TX. They loaded a plastic storage container that contained the decomposing body of Samuel Olson onto the back of his truck.
In my opinion, the odor from the decomposing body must have been horrific when the storage unit was opened. At that time, Dylan Walker should have called 911 immediately and not touched the container! Period!
But .. . he loaded the container with Samuel Olson's decomposing body onto his truck and drove Theresa Balboa to Jasper, TX from Webster, TX, which is about 160 miles, with a plastic container containing the decomposing body of Samuel Olson.
He books a room in his name and pays for it. Eventually, he and Theresa are seen on video unloading the container into the room which he booked.
Then later in the night he calls Crime Stoppers which was a great thing to do! But . .. he hopes to capitalize on receiving award money???
Dylan Walker is charged with tampering with physical evidence with an intent to impair a human corpse.
He needs to be held accountable for his actions. He should have called 911 the minute that storage unit was opened and he saw the container instead of loading the container onto his truck!
When law enforcement officers entered the room at the Best Western in Jasper, TX, one or more officers stated they immediately smelled the odor of decomposition based on their previous experience (smell/odor of decomposing body).
So .. . as many days as little Samuel Olson was dead, placed in a plastic container and put in a small storage unit, the odor of decomposition must have been horrific and nauseating.
Yet Dylan Walker chose to assist Theresa Balboa to move the container 160 miles to the northeast . . . to Jasper, TX!
He deserves to be prosecuted! It is about justice for precious little Samuel Olson. If someone is an accomplice in a crime after the death, they certainly deserve to be charged accordingly!
