Major update in deaths of Kansas City Chiefs fans who ‘froze to death’ at friend’s watch party
Nine months after three Kansas City Chief fans were found ‘frozen to death’ in their friend’s backyard, charges are expected to be brought soon – but not against the homeowner, his attorney said.
The bodies of David Harrington, 36, Ricky Johnson, 38, and Clayton McGeeney, 37, were found in the backyard of their friend Jordan Willis’s home in Kansas City, Missouri, on January 9 – two days after they all gathered to watch the Chiefs play the Los Angeles Chargers.
While toxicology reports showed they had cocaine, THC and fentanyl in their systems, officials have not revealed a cause of death for the men.
Their friends and family believe that Willis, an HIV scientist, was involved in their ‘untimely’ deaths.
Willis’ attorney, John Picerno, told Fox News that although ‘charges [will be] forthcoming in the next few weeks,’ his client ‘will not be charged.’
‘I can say with confidence that my client will not be charged in that regard. My client will not be charged in any manner with having to do with the untimely death of his friends,’ Picerno revealed.
Instead, Picerno said that anyone who potentially provided the football fans with drugs could face charges.
The criminal liability could be for a felony murder charge if somebody provided those young men with drugs,’ he told the outlet.
Picerno said it’s ‘definitely out of the ordinary’ how long it’s taken for the investigation to be completed.
The Kansas City Police Department labeled it a death investigation instead of a homicide.
‘I don’t know what caused this investigation to go on for nine months. That would be a better question answered by the prosecutors,’ Picerno said.
The Kansas City Police Department told DailyMail.com: ‘We have not received any new updates from investigators at this time.’
A spokesperson for the Platte County Prosecutor’s Office told Fox News: ‘It’s still an ongoing investigation. I assume when something is done, [Platte County Prosecutor] Eric [Zahnd] will be doing a press release. We don’t have a timeline to report, unfortunately.’
Despite being ‘confident’ that Willis won’t face criminal charges, Picerno said that civil charges are not out of the question for his client.
He added that he’s been contacted by lawyers representing the victim’s families, threatening to file civil suits against Willis.
Still, Jennifer Marquez, Harrington’s mother, is trying not to ‘get any hopes up.’
‘Of course I am extremely happy to hear that there may be something going on,’ she said after hearing about the possible charges.
‘I have not been told anything. They just have not relayed any information to us, the families, though, so I have nothing as far as information.
‘We’ve not been getting the autopsies or any information like that. They do not want us to be able to release anything that would hurt the case, I guess.
‘Of course, I would love to see people held responsible for this and I believe Jordan should be held responsible. It was his home, he had the party, and, you know,’ Marquez added.
Days before their bodies were found in Willis’ backyard, family members tried to get in contact with the homeowner. His lawyer previously said Willis was ‘asleep on the couch’ for two days.
Eventually, the fiancée of one of the men broke into the house through the basement and found the first body in the backyard. She then called police, who arrived to find Willis in his underwear, holding a wine glass.
Willis claimed to not have left his home for two days and slept with noise-canceling headphones that blocked the sound of his friends’ family frantic knocking.
Willis moved out of his home within days, fearing retaliation. He then checked into rehab.
Picerno said his client’s ‘life changed forever’ after his friends died.
‘It’s an awful thing when people have already presumed you’re guilty without real evidence. It’s a tough road to home, and he’s managing it as best he can,’ the lawyer said.
A source close to Willis’s family told Fox New that ‘many people have turned on him’ and he ‘still struggles with the aftermath of all of this.’

Zendaya has appeared to debunk pregnancy rumors which went viral on social media.
The “Spider-Man: No Way Home” actor posted an Instagram Story on June 15, which said, “See now, this is why I stay off Twitter… Just making stuff up for no reason… weekly.”
It followed rumors that Zendaya was pregnant spreading on Twitter, where a TikTok falsely claiming she’d announced a pregnancy began to circulate. Users appeared to believe the hoax, despite it originally being posted as part of a viral TikTok prank called the “Krissed” trend, where people make false claims about celebrities to bait people into watching a clip of Kris Jenner dancing to “Lady Marmalade.”
On June 13, a user called Ryan Roberts posted a TikTok showing a picture of an ultrasound that looked like a screenshot from Instagram, with Zendaya’s Instagram handle above it.
On Zendaya’s Instagram profile, there is no picture that matches the screenshot in the TikTok.
The 12-second video then cut to a 2011 clip of Kris Jenner dancing and lipsyncing to the “Moulin Rouge” song, with an on-screen caption reading, “You just got Krissed.”
The word “krissed” was used as a synonym for pranked in the video caption, which went on to say, “Send this to your friends to absolutely #kris them.”
Similar videos have gone viral over the past week, and 11,000 TikToks have been posted on the platform with the hashtag “#krissed,” as part of the prank.
Commenters under the original TikTok largely recognized that the pregnancy claims weren’t true, with top comments saying, “I didn’t fall for this one,” and “Nope I was actually prepared this time.”
The TikTok user who posted the video did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.
On Twitter, users appeared to believe the pregnancy was real
Shortly after the TikTok was posted, a rumor that Zendaya was pregnant began to spread on Twitter.
The topic “Zendaya pregnant,” was trending on the platform on June 15, with some people suggesting they were shocked or sad to hear the news, and top liked tweets under the hashtag, “#ZendayaPregnant” have hundreds of thousands of likes each on the platform.
Some users recognized that the rumors originated from the “Krissed” trend and were part of a prank, urging users not to believe the claims.
Zendaya’s personal life has frequently been the topic of speculation on social media
Zendaya and her boyfriend Tom Holland have tried to keep their relationship out of the public eye as much as possible. However, last year, Holland told People that he wanted to “take a break and focus on starting a family.”
He added: “I love kids. I can’t wait to be a dad — I can wait and I will, but I can’t wait!”
In February, Holland also shut down reports that he had purchased a home in London, England with Zendaya.
The two Marvel stars were first linked after starring in the “Spider-Man” Marvel Cinematic Universe trilogy together. Last year, dating rumors surfaced after they were photographed kissing in a car.
Holland later told GQ that he and Zendaya felt “robbed” of their privacy by the photograph.
“One of the downsides of our fame is that privacy isn’t really in our control anymore, and a moment that you think is between two people that love each other very much is now a moment that is shared with the entire world,” Holland said.
Representatives for Zendaya did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment
