3 Indicted in 'Senseless Acts of Violence' After Father Killed for Refusing to Stay Quiet, Prosecutors Say
Three indicted face charges including first-degree murder and armed criminal action for killing a man who reported his 15-year-old daughter's rape and refusing a $12,000 bribe.
- Indicting three people, Ferguson prosecutors said on Wednesday that Lavor Harmon, Anthony L. Young and Anthony D. Young face six charges, including two counts of first-degree murder, for conspiracy to kill Kcoree Warren, who was shot at his Bayview Drive home on July 8.
- Prosecutors say the case began when Warren reported a March 21 alleged statutory rape of a 15-year-old and declined a $12,000 bribe, after which Lavonda Harmon attempted another.
- On Wednesday, prosecutors say Lavor Harmon, Anthony L. Young, and Anthony D. Young conspired to kill Warren; the gunman was killed the same day, and the getaway vehicle was destroyed by fire.
- Prosecutors noted Lavonda Harmon is in custody in St. Louis County on a $2,000,000 bond, while the Youngs remain in federal custody, prosecutors say.
- Neighbors say the murder still haunts their quiet Bayview Drive neighborhood, Warren's family has not returned, and broken glass remains visible three months later after hearing 4 or 5 gunshots.
