- Tony Kagay, an attorney for one of the three families of Kansas City Chiefs fans, spoke out about some of the “angry, speculative statements” made after the victims’ deaths
- “Let’s wait to find out what the police say happened,” Kagay said
- Ricky Johnson, David Harrington and Clayton McGeeney were found dead Jan. 9 outside their friend’s apartment days after watching a Kansas City Chiefs game together
A month after three Kansas City Chiefs fans were mysteriously found dead in their friends’ backyards, an attorney for one of the families has spoken out about some of the “angry” theories out there.
Ricky Johnson, David Harrington and Clayton McGeeney were found dead Jan. 9 outside Jordan Willis’ rental home two days after watching a Kansas City Chiefs game together.
The police said that “no offense was observed or suspected” and that the cause of death will be determined by the medical examiner. Early toxicology reports reportedly indicated they had “several” substances in their systems, according to FOX affiliate WDAF-TV and TMZ, citing sources. The autopsy and official toxicology reports have not been made public.
Chief Fan’s family lawyer says some questions may never be answered in a way that ‘makes people happy’
As the case sparks speculation from both the public and grieving family members, who say they still have no answers from the police, a number of theories have begun to circulate.
Tony Kagay, an attorney representing McGeeney’s mother, Nancy Bossert, and fiancee, April Mahoney, told Fox News Digital that it is “premature” for some families to come out “aggressively or hostile toward the police.”
“Nancy would have preferred that the kinds of angry, conjectural statements coming from some family members … would not have happened, so that the investigation could proceed in a dignified manner,” he told the news outlet, without naming names.
“Let’s wait to find out what the police say happened,” added Kagay, who did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
