Chester DeLon Kelley, a 34-year-old resident of Kansas City, Missouri, was killed on October 22, 2011. His death was classified as a homicide and occurred within the Kansas City metropolitan area. Following the incident, funeral services were arranged and held at the Duane E. Harvey Funeral Directors Chapel in early November 2011, with burial taking place at Brooking Cemetery.
The investigation into Kelley's death has not resulted in any reported arrests or the filing of criminal charges against specific individuals in the years following the crime. The case was eventually listed among other unsolved homicides from the region by local advocacy groups, such as Corey's Network, which works to raise awareness for cold cases and support families of victims in the Kansas City area.
Despite the passage of time, no suspect or suspects have been publicly identified by law enforcement, and the circumstances surrounding the motive and specific events of that day remain part of the city's inventory of unsolved violent crimes. The case remains open without a legal resolution or conviction on record.
