http://www.kake.com/news/headlines/121812654.htmlThis guy (Brett Seacat) was an instructor at the Kansas Law Enforcement Training Center in Hutchinson (a branch of Kansas University) and employed there since 2008. Back in 2002 he was a defendant in a wrongful death suit when he was a police officer in Wichita. What happened was a prisoner was being taken into the jail for processing on a DUI charge. The guy had his arms handcuffed behind his back. Seacat gets pissed off and slams him up against the concrete wall so hard that his head cracked open and he ends up dying in the hospital. Unfortunately the guy's family was too poor to continue with the wrongful death suit after spending $13,000 on it, and it ends up getting dismissed.
So fast forward to April 30 of this year. Seacat is married with two small kids. The marriage is crumbling. His wife files for divorce and serves him with divorce papers. Unfortunately she still allowed him to sleep on the couch until he could find other living arrangements. Two days later in the middle of the night he shoots her in the head and starts the house on fire. He makes it out of the house with the two kids and of course he leaves her body in there to get burned hoping the fire will cover up the evidence.
Shouldn't be a big surprise that a KU employee could turn out to be a serial killer, but the thing is I actually knew this guy growing up and used to ride the school bus with him.
