On February 13, 2022, Connor Daniel O'Callaghan, aged 30, was found dead in Wichita, Kansas. He was discovered alongside Bonnie Galloway, aged 38, in a shed located at 2141 S. Erie St. Both victims had sustained gunshot wounds to their heads. The investigation revealed that O'Callaghan and Galloway had been living in the shed with the homeowner's permission.
The primary suspect in this case was Justin Macormac, aged 27 at the time of the incident.
Macormac was arrested on February 14, 2022, for an unrelated incident and later charged in August 2022 for the murders of O'Callaghan and Galloway. Macormac pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including first-degree murder and voluntary manslaughter, and was sentenced to life in prison with parole eligibility after 71 years and one month.
Another individual, Brandon Prouse Jr., aged 23, was also implicated in the crime. Prouse Jr. pleaded guilty to aggravated battery and was sentenced to over 20 years in prison. His involvement included planning the robbery with Macormac, which led to the fatal shootings. Prouse Jr. received a combined sentence for the robbery and for violating probation on two earlier crimes.
The motive behind the murders was linked to a robbery attempt. Macormac and Prouse Jr. had gone to the shed looking for fake Percocet pills laced with fentanyl, known as 'blues.' During the robbery, Macormac shot both victims while they were sitting on a couch in the shed. He then took guns and cellphones before leaving the scene.
