Wichita teen talked to police about killing pregnant girlfriend, court records show
A 19-year-old Wichita man accused of killing his pregnant girlfriend declined to be interviewed by police but made statements such as 'I killed her' while he sat alone in an interrogation room, according to a probable cause affidavit released Friday. Matthew Wayne Criscenzo has been charged with first-degree premeditated murder in the May 25 killing of 20-year-old Naomi Oglesby at his father's home in the 700 block of South Laura, near Kellogg and Washington. His father called 911 and took the Glock 22 .40 caliber handgun from his son after hearing the gunshot, the court document says. Criscenzo was standing over Oglesby and said 'I killed my baby,'' his father told a detective, according to the affidavit. Oglesby had been shot in the head. Doctors perfomed an emergency C-section to try and save the baby, but she 'started having seizures and was intubated,' and further testing showed 'severe brain trauma due to a lack of oxygen,' a detective wrote in the document. Family previously said Zy'nia Rayne Oglesby, who was born at 5:03 a.m. on May 25, weighing 6 pounds, 7.7 ounces and at 19.5 inches long, suffered brain damage from the lack of oxygen after her mother was killed. The baby and Naomi Oglesby's other child, Yazmyn Rayne Oglesby-Criscenzo, who died at 6 weeks old from sudden infant death syndrome on Aug. 3, 2024, were both Criscenzo's children, family said. The affidavit says that Criscenzo talked to officers about what happened leading up to Oglesby's death. When officers arrived at the 4:28 a.m. call, Criscenzo was trying to give Oglesby mouth-to-mouth, the document says. The sergeant pulled him away from her. While walking him to another officer, Criscenzo said: 'I can't believe I did this' and 'I didn't want to, I didn't mean to, I just didn't want her to go and I thought she was gonna leave me,' according to the document. To another officer he said, 'It all went to (expletive) because I got drunk and she just wanted me to stop and I didn't want her to go,' the document says. In the back of a police car, according to the affidavit, Criscenzo said, 'I didn't want her to go. I didn't think my finger was on the trigger and then she pushed me away and it went off.' In an interrogation room, Criscenzo declined to give a statement after being read his Miranda rights, the affidavit says, but after detectives walked out the room he said: 'I wanna go home with Naenae and I killed her. I killed her.' In the document, officers say they found a spent .40 caliber round in the living room and two live rounds, an extended magazine on the couch and three gun cases in Criscenzo's bedroom. The blood spatter was low to the ground, indicating she was near the ground when she was shot, the detective wrote. Criscenzo has also been charged with aggravated battery tied to the case, but that charge doesn't list a name, only initials, which don't match Oglesby's initials. Since his arrest, Criscenzo has also been charged in other cases. He has been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated endangering of a child, criminal threat and domestic battery from an April 29 incident, which happened in the 2600 block of East Ninth Street and involved a handgun, according to a police report. He was also charged with aggravated burglary, aggravated endangering of a child, aggravated intimidation of a witness, domestic battery, battery and criminal threat in a Jan. 25 incident. A police report says that the suspect left visible injuries on his girlfriend and also on a male.
