Emon/Beasley found dead 10 minutes from BTK home's location in Park City, btw. Blackmon's body found about 12 minutes away. Prime true crime geography in and around Wichita.

I know the 10th and Ash area is prime gang territory and Kingston Cove is not an apartment complex with a great reputation and those may the biggest issue here.

I don't know if I'm close enough to be verified as an insider, but I'm family of a friend of family, and live in Wichita. She was too young and her family is too good for this tragedy. I don't understand why or how this kind of evil can exist. So so very sad...

Thank you, can you share any updates? Was this a matter of being at the wrong place at the right time? Gang related? Robbery?

I'd bet this is gang related.

I was thinking that as well. Seems DK has a previous felony charge as well.

I fail to see how this is related to the murders of MB and KB. JMO.

There are rumors and speculation, but I haven't heard anything official. It's all still under investigation.

Not exactly what I expected of someone accused of a double murder

It sounds like there may be more arrests?

Just checking to see if I said it was. Yes, right here: "geography." Everyone dies somewhere.

I misinterpreted your post. My apologies.

Kelly was also arrested for allegedly violating his probation in a separate case, according to the booking records. A warrant filed Friday in that case accuses him of failing to report as ordered to probation staff on Jan. 19, Jan. 26 and Feb. 2 and of failing to make monthly payments toward his court fees. Court and online corrections records show Sedgwick County placed Kelly on probation for two years in October after he was convicted of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and criminal possession of a weapon by a felon for incidents that occurred in March 2020. That probation carries an underlying prison term of 35 months. Kelly also has a felony juvenile record that includes at least two convictions, court records show.

Probation for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon?

Absolutely brilliant, well done whichever judge handed that down.

Along with two juvenile felonies. This guy was just a ticking time bomb. So sorry for their families.

Once again someone has to die before the court will lock these perpetrators up.
When will getting bail not be automatic as it seems to be these days. MOO
