DUSTIN HILT

——————UPDATE——————-

Yesterday, 1-19-10, a Johnson County Judge ruled there is enough evidence to go to trial. Hilt is the only one of the three that did not waive his right to a speedy trial. He will be back in March.
Gruesome details of how Keighley was murdered were revealed in yesterday’s court hearing. These cowards had an opportunity, it seems, to offer Keighley help after the initial round of beating and they chose not to.
It is for wimps like this that the death penalty is too kind.

Keighley Alyea disappeared last week without a trace. Her car was found recently and her phone had not been used. Her body was found Monday October 5, 2009 in Cass County, Mo. Three arrests were made Monday night and charges were made on Tuesday. One of the charged, Dustin Hilt, is the ex-boyfriend of Keighley Alyea. Dustin Hilt, 18, Joseph Mattox, 21, and Gerald Calbeck, 18, were all charged with first-degree murder, aggravated robbery and aggravated kidnapping in Johnson County court.

Motive and method have not been made public if even known yet. All but Hilt have clean Johnson County records and the charges that Hilt has faced previously had all been dropped by the prosecution.

The body was found in a field near East 235th Street and State Route K just north of Harrisonville on October 5, 2009.

These persons have only been charged and have not been found guilty or sentenced. KCMugshots is only releasing names due to the extensive publicity this case has already received. It was on Nancy Grace last night for goodness sake. All persons charged are innocent until proven guilty by a court of law.

GERALD CALBECK
