On Dec. 27, 2022 Missouri Highway patrol chased what they felt may be an intoxicated driver until the chase ended in a fiery crash at a roundabout at 72nd Street and Overland Drive in Platte County. Genie Howard died. Family members said the wreck happened on the driver’s birthday and family very much question the police narrative based on eyewitness stories they heard. Genie Howard had spent some time in prison and was very proud that he had received his GED and was valedictorian. His life had gone in a positive direction. Relatives said they were frantically trying to get in touch with Genie Howard and when they received no answer, they began calling around and found out he had crashed and been taken to a burn unit. His mother said the burns covered 70% of his body including his face. The family said no one had notified them. The family said they only learned from hospital staff that Highway Patrol had been involved in his death. It took three days for Genie Howard to die. Family remain very skeptical of the police narrative, particularly due to the lack of information they received.

An officer witnessed Parker run a stop sign at S.18th Street and Metropolitan Avenue. He then activated his lights in an attempt to pull her over but she failed to yield and fled the scene.
The driver of a Nissan Altima was chased by police while driving west on Metropolitan when she struck a slope in the roadway at the intersection of South 32nd Street. KHP said the driver lost control, ran off the road and struck a rock wall at a private residence. The crash remains under investigation by KHP. The crash report originally listed this incident as a police pursuit but as of Monday, KHP has changed its records saying this was not a police pursuit. The officer was reported as “following” instead of chasing but it may have had the same effect.

Police were called to an armed disturbance. Officers claim that the man refused to drop his weapon and was tasered. William Foxx Blakely allegedly pointed a gun at officers and was shot and killed.

Officers initially only tasered him while he allegedly held a gun which suggests he may not have been too aggressive as he could have shot police during the taser attack. It is unclear why police escalated the event to a fatal shooting.

Excelsior Springs Police officers arrested Chase after a brief foot chase. They allege that Chase charged at the officers. An officer fired a Taser. Chase refused further treatment, and officers transported him to the jail at the Excelsior Springs Police Department, where he was placed on a 48-hour hold. ESPD staff found him unresponsive in his cell at 3:01 p.m. May 8 and called an ambulance. Paramedics pronounced Chase dead at the scene. Chase’s cause of death was reportedly methamphetamine intoxication and his manner of death was ruled an accident. The family’s lawyer strongly disputes the police narrative, pointing out that he died more than 24 hours after arrest, making it virtually impossible for his death to have been the very late sudden result of a drug overdose due to the length of time he had been in custody before he died. His cause of death was suspected to be due to the Taser or other injury.
