Fourth wrongful-death lawsuit filed against men accused in 2024 deaths of Chiefs fans
A Lebanon, Missouri woman is suing two men facing charges in the drug-related deaths of her son and two other men. It marks the fourth wrongful-death lawsuit against the pair. Norma Chester, the mother of 38-year-old Ricky Johnson, filed the suit on Monday against Jordan Willis and Ivory Carson, who are accused of supplying drugs at a Kansas City Chiefs game watch party at Willis' home in January 2024. Johnson and two other men, 37-year-old David Harrington and 36-year-old Clayton McGeeney, died of fentanyl and cocaine toxicity, according to an autopsy report. The three men were found dead in the backyard of a Northland home after McGeeney's fiancee told police that after she hadn't heard from McGeeney, she broke into the home's basement. In the back porch area, she found a dead body. Willis and Carson were charged with two counts each of delivery of a controlled substance and three counts each of first-degree involuntary manslaughter in March, according to Platte County court documents. Chester is seeking damages on behalf of Johnson's three children, according to the lawsuit. The woman is suing on counts of negligence. Similarly to three other wrongful death lawsuits filed against the men, the June lawsuit alleges Willis and Carson 'knew or should have known that decedent was experiencing negative side effects from cocaine and/or fentanyl,' according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit also alleges the pair failed to render aid or attempts to rescue the three men from the 'impacts caused by the cocaine and fentanyl.' Other wrongful-death lawsuits against Willis and Carson have been filed by Johnson's father, 64-year-old Rickie Johnson; McGeeny's mother, Nancy Bossert; and Harrington's father, Jon Harrington. Willis' attorney, John Picerno, previously told The Star that Willis maintains that he did not supply drugs at the watch party. Willis' DNA was found on a bag of cocaine at the scene and Carson's DNA was found on a bag of fentanyl, according to court documents. A hearing for the case is set to be held on Sept. 12, 2025. The Star's Kendrick Calfee, Nathan Pilling and Andrea Klick contributed reporting to this story.
