Delayed Justice

Another one solved…this time Kent Metro Cold case team. On Sept. 9, 2009 William Parnell was found dead in his basement, hands and feet bound. The coroner determined the cause of death was blunt force trauma. On Monday police arrested Teivariol Davonte-Darnell Moore, 26, of Saginaw. He confessed to the murder. He was scheduled for arraignment yesterday. Behind the arrest was a DNA comparison. You can read John Tunison’s story in the Grand Rapids Press here.

As well, the confessed killer of Robert Anthony Farmer, who was killed outside Miss Tracy’s Liquor Store in October of 2004, has been sentenced. Kent County Circuit Court Judge George Buth sentenced Walter Antraell Wilsonto 25 to 50 years in prison. You can read the story of this nearly 10-year old crime by Barton Deiters here in the Grand Rapids Press. This case was solved by the Grand Rapids Police Department.

More justice. Thank you, thank you.
