Alex Wiemer-Lee is the fifth man who attended a Kansas City Chiefs game party and left before three of his friends were later found frozen to death in the host's backyard, a new report says. It turned out to be.
Wiemar Lee attended high school with David Harrington, 37, Ricky Johnson, 38, and Clayton McGeeney, 36, but on January 9th, she was killed by Jordan Willis. A body was found outside his Kansas City rental home — two days after all five of his friends were there to watch football. The Daily Mail reported on Friday.
Attorney Andrew Talzi said Wiemar Lee arrived at Willis' home around 7 p.m. on Jan. 7, while the other four were still awake and watching “Jeopardy!” It was previously reported that he left around midnight.
Wiemar Lee did not respond to The Post's request for comment.
Two days later, after numerous calls and texts to their cell phones went unanswered, police discovered the bodies of Harrington, Johnson and McGeny in the yard of Willis' rental home during a welfare check.
Willis also could not be reached. His lawyer said he “slept on the couch” next to a loud fan with noise-cancelling headphones on for almost two days.
The incident is not being investigated as a homicide, and police stress that foul play is not suspected.
According to the Daily Mail, Wiemar Lee was a childhood friend of the three men who were found dead and Willis from their time at Park Hill High School.
Photos on social media show Wiemar Lee and his friends wearing Kansas City Chiefs jerseys and smiling broadly.
The lawyer said Lee received emails from McGeeney's fiance and Johnson's mother asking about their loved ones.
Ms. Lee sent text messages to both Mr. Willis and Mr. Johnson, but neither responded.
Lee's attorney's account contradicts several statements made by Willis' attorney, John Picerno. Among them is that Willis saw all four of his friends go out around 2 a.m. and then fell asleep on the couch.
It also contradicts Picerno's claim that Willis never received any text messages, only messages via Facebook Messenger.
A message to Tarji was not immediately returned.
The victim's loved ones have publicly denounced Willis, and Harrington's father said he “doesn't believe” the HIV researcher's version of what happened.
However, Willis' family stood by him and said they were saddened by the loss of their friend in the bizarre incident.
“He wouldn't do anything in a million years,” Jordan Willis' father told the Post Thursday.
“These are all good friends of his, guys he went to school with, and he took them to the Chiefs football game the day before.”
