Bestowing Justice
A representative from the Johnson County where Kelsey’s body was found, prosecutor Phill Kline said, “This community has lost a vibrant and promising life, and a family has suffered unimaginable tragedy.” Even Police Chief John Douglass expressed his thoughts and shared, “I want to again express my condolences to the Smith family. I realize that this is not the preferred conclusion. While we cannot give them their daughter back, we can at least give them justice.”
