    Kansas City Chiefs: Horrific Update Emerges On Possible Foul Play Involving Fans Who Froze To Death

    A stunning report came out this week regarding Kansas City Chiefs fans who reportedly froze to death at their friend’s house while watching the game against the Los Angeles Chargers back in week 18. According to the report, the homeowner claims that he did not know that his friends were dead outside for potentially multiple days, which caused some major speculation amongst fans. Now, a new update in the report has come out regarding one of the victim’s family members, who suspects foul play was involved.

    According to the father of the victim Ricky Johnson, it is a possibility that the victims could have been drugged and left for dead. The father made this wild claim even though police made it clear that they were not treating the deaths as suspicious, and have not determined whether drugs or drinks were involved in the incident.

    According to the original report, the homeowner has denied knowing anything about his three friends dying on his property, saying that he was asleep in his home with headphones on and next to a loud fan. However, the father told Fox News Digital that his son was not “irresponsible” and would not have been outside without a coat to freeze to death.

    I believe he drugged them, dragged them outside, and waited two days to call police. He may have done some drugs and stuff in the past, but I do not believe all three of them did drugs and fell over dead in that backyard. I’m not going to say that during a game he didn’t have some drinks. But he wasn’t irresponsible that he was going to go outside and freeze to death.

    The mother of the same victim also spoke out, having the same claim as her husband, however, she noted that it was just a theory she had.

    Seriously, these were responsible men. How do they go in a backyard and freeze to death, all three of them? Something that comes to my mind, this guy [the homeowner] wants to brag about how smart he is, he’s a scientist. My thoughts are that he concocted something and gave it to all three men.

    Even with these claims by the Johnson family, the Kansas City Police Department is sticking by their original report that foul play was not suspected, and continues to await the autopsy reports. Do you believe that there was foul play involved in this incident, or was the original claim true?

      Why do you have a large fan running in the peak of winter?

            Or, like the family said, he concocted some drug (home made meth, home made MDMA? who knows) on his own and they tried it and died and he had to come up with this crazy story to hide it. If it is a novel drug, the drug tests may not turn it up.

            I think this is more likely than them just freezing to death. The fact that he is a chemist….

          I think that this should be thoroughly investigated by the State, possibly the FBI. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT! It seems as though the police in KC just do not want to bother with it. Why did it take him so long to turn in their deaths? I would definitely notice their vehicles outside and their bodies outside. Evidently their keys and phones were inside the house. I use a fan all year round for the white noise because I have Tinnitus, but I don’t put headphones on… that takes away from the noise of the fan. He would have heard them screaming to get in the house if not for the headphones. And why did he lock them out? He had to of been aware that their keys and phones were inside, If they were intoxicated, why would he even think of letting his “friends” drive home. Put them to bed and let them sleep it off. There are just too many holes in his story. There seems to have been some kind of foul play. To the families of the dead sons… please keep pushing for justice. Call whoever you have to, to make sure your boys did not die in vain. My love and thoughts to all of the family members.

        Many people run fans for “white noise” to aid their sleeping.

        I definitely and totally agree. The 3 men can’t all be dumb enough not to come out of the freezing cold. However the police obviously can be dumb enough to think this isn’t a very circumspect situation.

      I agree with the father’s opinion. I don’t believe three grown men froze to death. Just doesn’t make sense.

        He didn’t let them in his home? Locked his door? They couldn’t leave in their vehicles? They passed out outside?. Are you kidding me??!!! All three of them??!! I hope they do a thorough toxicology test. I have been pretty drunk and high before and couldn’t find my car in the freezing cold. Instead of freezing to death I called someone. All three were so intoxicated they couldn’t make a call to 911 or anyone?! I call bs.
