Boyfriend of D.C. police officer arrested, again, 30 years after her death
On Sept. 13, 1995, D.C. police Officer Denna Campbell reportedly told a co-worker, 'If I don't show up for work Saturday, you'll know he killed me and buried me somewhere.' Campbell was talking about her boyfriend, according to court documents made public Wednesday in Montgomery County, Maryland — and three days after she said that, she was shot to death inside their Montgomery County apartment. The boyfriend — then known as Kenneth Wonsom, who has since changed his name to Amir Jalil Ali — was arrested this week for the second time in her slaying. His first charges in the case, 30 years ago, were dropped by prosecutors.
