Mystery Deepens as 5th Man Who Says He Saw 3 KC Men at House Where They Died Hires Criminal Defense Lawyer

The three Kansas City Chiefs fans found dead in the backyard of their friend’s rental home in Missouri were still alive and well in the early morning hours of Jan. 8, according to a man who claims he was with them that night.

That man is speaking out after a lawyer for the man renting the home, Jordan Willis, said that when his client went to bed that night after the men spent the evening of Jan. 7 watching football, there were still four men at the house.

“At some point, he got tired and went to sleep while there were these guys in the home, and as I know now there was a couple of other people in the home,” Willis’ lawyer, John Picerno, previously told Inside Edition Digital.

This fifth man is disputing this account however, and claiming in an interview with WDAF that he left shortly after midnight while Willis and the three men were still awake after a day of watching football .

It was 48 hourslater that police found the bodies of the three men, who were later identified by a Kansas City Police Department (KCPD) spokesperson as 38-year-old Ricky Johnson, 37-year-old David Harrington and 36-year-old Clayton McGeeney.
