Prosecutor could seek death penalty in deputies' deaths (with clip)
"KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A man with a long criminal history has been charged in the shooting deaths of two Wyandotte County deputies.
Antoine Fielder is charged with two counts of capital murder and one count of aggravated robbery.
Wyandotte District Attorney Mark Dupree said in a 13-minute news conference Friday that his office plans to move forward in the case, which could include seeking the death penalty....
On Friday, June 15, Deputy Patrick Rohrer, 35, and Deputy Theresa King, 44, were transporting inmates, including Fielder, from the Wyandotte County Courthouse.
Fielder allegedly overpowered the deputies and shot and killed them, possibly with the deputies’ guns....
Fielder is also facing other previous charges. He was at the Wyandotte County Courthouse on June 15 for a hearing on robbery charges. He was charged in a 2017 murder in Kansas City, Missouri in which he is accused of killing a woman a day after Christmas. He’s also facing aggravated assault and battery charges.
Fielder also remains a suspect in Kelsey Ewonus' 2015 murder. He already went on trial twice for her murder but both ended in hung juries.
Prosecutors blame the mistrials on witness tampering and claim he intimidated people. ..."

"KANSAS CITY, Mo. — After two Wyandotte County juries could not reach a decision in a 2015 Kansas City, Kansas murder case, Jackson County prosecutors charged Antoine Fielder with murder.
The murder is in connection to a Dec. 26, 2017 shooting in Kansas City, Missouri in the 600 block of Spruce Avenue.
Prosecutors say Fielder shot and killed Rosemarie Harmon and injured her male friend. He is also charged with assault and armed criminal action. ..."

Man got off on murder charge. Then he killed a woman in KC crime spree, police say (with clip)
April 04, 2018
"Two juries couldn't convict a man facing murder, so he walked free. About three months later, he went on a crime spree that included murder, according to prosecutors in Jackson and Wyandotte counties.
Antoine R. Fielder, 30, was charged Tuesday in Jackson County with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Rosemarie Harmon last December. Fielder also faces first-degree assault charges and two counts of armed criminal action. He also allegedly shot and injured Harmon's friend....
Fielder was released from custody on Sept. 29, the same day Dupree's office dismissed a murder charge. Fielder had stood trial twice for the 2015 killing of Kelsey Ewonus, a 22-year-old woman from Overland Park.
Ewonus was found inside a car parked in an out-of-the-way area just west of State Line Road and a few blocks north of the University of Kansas Hospital.
The juries in both trials were hung, resulting in mistrials. The last mistrial was in July.
"We did everything we could to prove to a jury that he was guilty" of killing Ewonus, Dupree said at the press conference. He added, "If you catch him again, you try again."..."
