Posted by Mug in In the News, UPDATED on November 17, 2009

Grant Wilms, 44
The Johnson County DA came out on Friday (8-28-09) with a story regarding three men, two of which are these guys and they happen to be Father and Son. Grant Wilms, 44, and Hermann Wilms, 74, along with Kenneth Opstein, 83, of Sioux City, Iowa, were arrested Thursday.
District Attorney Steve Howe said that the scam, which hooked people seeking a discount on prescription drugs, claimed many thousands of victims across the country. -KC Star
Both of these men are being held on $1,000,000 bonds. Mapping their addresses shows they were close proximity neighbors and fronted the fairways of Deer Creek. I have probably put a ball OB into one of their yards at some point in my life. But then just went back to my humble home that I didn’t acquire from fraulant actions against the elderly.
They are charged with 13 counts of ”Making a False Writing“ 14 counts of “Theft” and 1 count of “Computer Crime”

Jill Conaghan
Long story short is a woman at the beginning of her life allegedly hit and killed a women who had lived a long life. The story is riddled with tragedy. I don’t know how much it plays into it, but I will tell you that it seems OP Public Works knew they had a problem in this area and I can guarantee if that is true, the knowledge of this as a hazardous road will come up in trial. Full story on KCTV 5 here. It also seems that Ms. Conaghan has a history of driving and alcohol related incidents on Overland Park records as well. See the tables below.
Ms. Conaghan has only been charged, and is presumed innocent of all charges. KC Mugshots again following our standard proceedure of publishing names only because of the media publicity already in other outlets.

Edwin R. Hall

Hall, Edwin R - Front
Edwin Roy “Jack” Hall is hopefully getting his in El Dorado CF-Central Prison. You may recall him as the indigent that kidnapped a young teenager girl from the Overland Park Target by Oak Park Mall. The story going around was Hall abducted Kelsey Smith as she was walking to her car after purchasing a 6-month anniversary present for her boyfriend. Target surveillance video caught some of the abduction in and out of frame. Kelsey, who was known to answer her cell wasn’t. Her car was found in the Macy’s parking lot around 9 pm June 2, 2007 with her purse and wallet but without Kelsey.
Because Hall is a pussy and couldn’t see going through what he put Kelsey through, on July 23rd, 2008 at 1:30 PM, he plead guilty to all four charges brought against him as part of a plea agreement. For all you law non-majors, a plea agreement usually means no death penalty.
On September 16, 2008 Johnson County District Judge Peter V. Ruddick sentenced Hall to life in prison without parole for the kidnapping, rape and murder.
