August 2017 — Kelly Renee Turner, now 43, caused the death of her 7-year-old daughter, Olivia Gant, by fabricating numerous serious illnesses and subjecting her to years of unnecessary medical treatment. On February 9, 2022, she pled guilty in Douglas County District Court to child abuse resulting in death and a single count each of charitable fraud and theft between $100,000 and $1 million. In addition to the charges she pled guilty to Ms. Turner originally faced charges of first-degree murder and attempted influence of a public servant.
Judge Patricia Herron sentenced Kelly Turner to 16 years for the child abuse charge, 10 years for the theft count, and three years for charitable fraud. Ms. Turner will serve the sentences at the same time, followed by three years of mandatory parole.
Kelly Turner's daughter died in hospice care in August 2017 after five years of treatment at Children's Hospital Colorado for illnesses prosecutors said her mother fabricated for attention and financial gain. Ms. Turner claimed Olivia died of intestinal failure.
Olivia's body was exhumed for the autopsy as part of the investigation into her death, and it found no evidence of intestinal disease. The cause of death was “undetermined.”
Authorities began looking into Ms. Turner's role in Olivia's death in 2018, when she started seeking care for another daughter, claiming the child was suffering from “bone pain” from cancer. When doctors looked into those complaints, they found no indication of cancer.
Months before Olivia died, Turner helped her make a “ bucket list” of things she wanted to do. According to the indictment, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, under the assumption that Olivia was dying, gave the child a Bat Princess party. A GoFundMe set up by Turner brought in more than $22,000. She was also accused of defrauding Medicaid of thousands of dollars in unnecessary medical care.

October 15, 2021 — On October 13 th Longmont postal worker Jason Schaefer was gunned down in broad daylight in a driveway near some mailboxes. That night, the Longmont Police already had a suspect in custody, and new details about the crime were released yesterday, October 14 th .
The original release from Longmont Police states that at 12:33 PM on October 13 th , officers responded to a report of a shooting near the intersection of Heatherhill Street and Renaissance Drive. There they found a male postal worker later identified as Mr. Schaefer. He was declared dead at the scene.
The report referenced a “male suspect ” who “ was seen fleeing the area south on Renaissance Drive. The suspect was wearing dark clothing, a hoodie and a blue mask.” An hours-long search of the area failed to turn up the alleged shooter.
The arrest affidavit in the case quotes the Longmont postmaster posing this question upon arriving at the scene of the shooting: “ Did the baby mama do it? ”
Devan Schreiner was Jason Schaefer's former lover and the mother of his child. As word spread about his murder, she immediately became a suspect. And shortly after noon on October 13 th , a car matching the description of her black Nissan Rogue had been spotted in the area where Mr. Schaefer was shot a short time later.
During the early evening of October 13 th Ms. Schreiner spoke to a police detective and agreed to drive from her home in Fort Collins to Longmont. The majority of Schreiner's statements to authorities were redacted in the release given to the press, but her wardrobe spoke volumes: She wore a blue face mask and a black hoodie.
Later that day, at around 10:30 PM, Longmont police put out another alert, revealing that officers with the department, in conjunction with agents from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, had arrested Devan Schreiner, 26, on suspicion of first-degree murder. “ She is the victim's ex-girlfriend, ” the release stated. Ms. Schreiner was booked at Longmont police headquarters before being transported to Boulder County Jail. The department added this assurance: “ This was not a random act of violence. This crime appears to be an isolated incident and an act of domestic violence.”
Devan Schreiner was recently fired from her post office job because of a thus-far-unspecified incident involving Jason Schaefer.
Two days before the shooting, Mr. Schaefer had asked a local court to modify his parenting time. It's unclear whether Devan Schreiner was served with papers regarding that request before the murder.

February 2022 — Investigation into Daxcimo Ceja's, 48, homicide reportedly began on Wednesday, March 30, 2022. That was apparently two months after Mr. Ceja disappeared, but his body was not located until October 2023.
On Tuesday, April 5, 2022, detectives obtained an arrest warrant for murder in the first degree for Deka Jean Simmons, 38, of Colorado Springs. Later investigation showed that the day after Ms. Simmons, 38, accepted a plea deal in Lincoln County, and was released from jail, that she killed Mr. Ceja.
More than a year later, on Thursday, October 5, 2023, the Colorado Springs Police Department Communications Center received an anonymous tip regarding human remains being in a bag inside a drainage culvert near the 500 block of West Polk Street. CSPD officers responded and, with the assistance of the Colorado Springs Fire Department, were able to gain access to the culvert. A preliminary inspection led officers to believe that human remains were present. It was later confirmed unidentified human remains were found inside a bag in the drainage culvert.
On Friday, October 6, 2023, an autopsy was conducted on the remains. On Wednesday, October 11, 2023, the Coroner's Office positively identified the human remains as those of Daxcimo Ceja of Colorado Springs.
On Thursday, April 7, 2022, Deka Simmons was arrested by the CSPD Violent Offender Fugitive Task Force (VOFTF) and the Tactical Enforcement Unit (TEU). Ms. Simmons is still in custody at the El Paso County Jail.
But this is not Ms. Simmons first rodeo with police. Records show she has been accused of first-degree murder three times and served 12 years in the Department of Corrections for an accessory to murder charge in 2002. Ms. Simmons is also a suspect in an additional potential homicide, with evidence connecting her to the disappearance of Santino “Tino” Cardella and, in fact, she is a career criminal.
following abstracted from story by Zachary Dupont, the Gazette (Colorado Springs)
October 6, 2022 — A Colorado Springs career criminal with an extensive and violent record in El Paso County was never in compliance with probation or parole before a string of alleged crimes earlier this year, including first-degree murder, according to documents obtained by The Gazette.
Deka Jean Simmons — who will appear in 4th Judicial District Court for her preliminary hearing on Thursday afternoon — was a suspect in the death of Daxcimo Ceja two months before being arrested. Yet her probation officer asked to have her probation regranted on two occasions after Simmons was arrested in connection with two different crimes, posting bond just days before her arrest on suspicion of first-degree murder, court records show.
Simmons' first recorded run-in with the Colorado Springs police was in 2002 at just 18 years old, when she faced charges of felony menacing and third-degree assault with a deadly weapon, the first of more than seven weapons-related allegations.
Later that same year, in November 2002, Simmons would pick up what would be her first of three first-degree murder accusations. The district attorney's office ultimately dismissed those murder accusations against Ms. Simmons, but less than three months later she faced another allegation of first-degree murder. According to police records obtained by The Gazette, Simmons was accused of being involved in the shooting death of Donna Oliveto, a former inmate with her in the El Paso County jail.
The arrest affidavit for Deka Simmons details that she and her boyfriend at the time, Jeff Hoskins, were at the residence of Oliveto, and Deka was paranoid that Oliveto was working for the police.
Because Hoskins was the one who pulled the trigger, Ms. Simmons was charged with accessory to murder and sentenced to 12 years in the Colorado Department of Corrections. However, a social media post from June 2017 paints a much different picture of Simmons' involvement in the murder, calling her the “mastermind” of the plot.
“Deka J Simmons, at age 20, along with Jeffery S Hoskins, smoked an overabundance amount of Meth, mistakenly determined that Donna was an informant for the police (which she was not), on an upcoming attempted murder trial that Deka was facing, drove to Donna's house, and executed her for no reason,” the woman wrote on Facebook. “These two individuals had no regard for Donna, her son or any relationship that Donna had in this world. My son lost his mother that day, Her family lost a wonderful daughter, sister and aunt.”
While 12 years may seem like a light sentence to some, Jonathan Caudill, a criminology professor at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs and a former probation officer, said this was the harshest possible penalty Simmons could have received for the crime, and that she remained in prison for the entire length of her sentence.
According to court records, Deka Simmons was charged with assault twice while in prison between 2003 and 2004, including an incident where she assaulted an officer, and that added two years to her sentence. According to records from the Department of Corrections obtained by The Gazette, there were 35 prison incidents logged by Simmons between 2004 and 2015 including fighting, assault, verbal abuse, and more.
The continued incidents while incarcerated kept Simmons from being paroled early. Records indicate her parole requests were denied numerous times before she was released on her mandatory release date in 2016 after spending 14 years in prison.
Violations of Deka Simmons' parole would shortly follow her release. In 2017 court records show she was found guilty of weapon possession by a previous offender. Documents from the Department of Corrections show that a parole officer found brass knuckles and knives when searching her Colorado Springs motel room.
She was sentenced to two years in prison, with credit for 110 days served. After being released in 2019, again on parole, she was quickly back in prison for second-degree assault after stabbing her stepfather after a verbal altercation over custody of Simmons' child at a liquor store in north Colorado Springs, according to police records.
In total, Simmons was paroled three times and had parole revoked three times, according to records from the Department of Corrections.
For the 2019 stabbing incident, Simmons accepted a plea agreement from the district attorney's office and received three years of probation following her 90-day prison sentence.
While on probation, Deka Simmons added two new cases to her record in Weld and Lincoln counties: possession of a firearm by a previous offender dated November 9, 2020, and third-degree assault causing reckless injury and child abuse dated September 8, 2020.
The possession of a firearm by a previous offender charges in Weld County were dismissed with prejudice in District Court, but the assault causing reckless injury and child abuse charges in Lincoln County landed her 180 days of jail time after she accepted a plea deal, with credit for 180 days served. Court records show she accepted the plea deal on February 15, 2022.
Probation revocation documents show that on November 13, 2020, and April 6, 2021, a probation officer recommended that Simmons' probation be revoked and she serve time in jail for her probation violations.
Simmons wouldn't be arrested on suspicion of murder until nearly two months later on April 7, 2022. During this two-month period Simmons added a pair of new allegations to her rap sheet, one in an incident involving robbery with a weapon at a tow lot; and another involving felony menacing with a weapon.
According to court records, Deka Simmons was arrested on March 23 for the felony menacing charges and posted a $2,000 bond the next day to be released from county jail. The alleged murder and robbery happened just more than a month prior to the felony menacing.
Despite Simmons' prior convictions, new charges and suspicion of a possible murder, on March 25 and April 1, 2022, probation officers did not request that Simmons' probation be revoked entirely, but rather “be revoked and re-granted with the original terms and conditions.”
The April 1 probation revocation was amended on April 6, one day before Simmons was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder, to account for charges Simmons was now facing for first-degree murder.
Court records show she was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder on April 7, 2022.
Deka Simmons is being held in El Paso County jail on a no-bond hold in the first-degree murder accusations.
Simmons' extensive criminal background raises questions among some experts on how she was able to continue to be granted probation revocation and plea deals, despite those working with her insisting she had not been rehabilitated and remained a danger to the community.

March 22, 2022 — Raquel Chamberlain, 19, shot and killed Tryvone Brooks, 24, during an argument in a home near Patty Jewett Golf Course in Colorado Springs. She is accused of first-degree murder. Ms. Chamberlain admitted to police claiming that she did it because she feared that he'd kill her and her family if she hadn't, according to an affidavit obtained Thursday.
Officers responded about 9:30 AM to a shooting on the 1200 block of East Columbia Street and found Tryvone Brooks dead. He was on a couch in the living room of his cousin's house with multiple gunshot wounds.
Brooks' cousin woke up about 2 AM to gunshots inside his home. He told detectives that he saw someone walking on a nearby sidewalk but “ it did not look suspicious, ” adding that he didn't check on Brooks because the living room was dark and thought he was asleep. It wasn't until the cousin woke up hours later and found blood around Brooks that he called 911.
Four days later, on March 26, Raquel Chamberlain was arrested in the fatal shooting — though she initially denied her involvement and claimed that she didn't know about his death until after it was reported, she stated in an affidavit. She was booked into the El Paso County jail without bond, court records show.
Though she initially denied her role in the fatal shooting, Ms. Chamberlain admitted that she killed Brooks after detectives said they had footage of her leaving the hotel early March 22. She told police a friend drove her to the home on East Columbia Street, where she went inside and argued with Brooks before she shot him, the affidavit says.
Raquel Chamberlain told police that “ she acted alone and that no one else was involved in the murder.”
The affidavit paints Raquel Chamberlain's relationship with Tryvone Brooks as abusive and contentious, particularly over their child. Two days before the shooting, on March 20, Brooks allegedly assaulted Ms. Chamberlain, her mother, and a friend while they were picking up her child in front of Brooks' home.
That incident was reported to police. Ms. Chamberlain's mother later told detectives that she was “frustrated” that Tryvone Brooks was not arrested. The incident also prompted Ms. Chamberlain's mother to move the family out of their house and into a hotel out of fear that Brooks would find and hurt them.
While she was at the hotel, Ms. Chamberlain told detectives that Tryvone Brooks contacted her “ dozens of times” through his cousin's phone and made death threats. He left a voicemail on her mother's phone saying “he would kidnap and possibly harm her,” the affidavit states.
The document alleges that the family was so scared of Brooks that the mother brought a gun with her to the hotel “ in case (he) found them. ”

June 6, 2022 — Before his murder, Hernandez-Uribe, 31, made several 911 calls reporting a break-in at his home in Colorado Springs, an arrest affidavit states.
A little over an hour later at 6:04 AM Hernandez-Uribe placed a second 911 call, telling officers he was “ in danger.” In the 911 call, he can be heard saying in Spanish “I don't want problems, I have two kids. I didn't do anything...I didn't mean to.” A female voice can be heard saying “shut up” before the phone call ended.
“When CSPD officers arrived approximately 20 minutes later, they found forced entry to the front door, but Hernandez-Uribe was not present,” the affidavit states.
Hernandez-Uribe's body was later found along the side Old Stage Road with gunshot wounds. After an investigation, Yessica Cortes-Barcenas, 28, was arrested on suspicion of the murder, along with others, after a police inquiry into surveillance footage, text messages, and Facebook messages, according to court documents.
Cortes-Barcenas was the ex-girlfriend of Hernandez-Uribe, according to court records from the case. After her arrest she took a plea to murder in the second degree. Cortes-Barcenas, Isidrio Sarabia-Gonzalez, 24, Braulio Barron-Rubio, 34, and Ector Sarabia-Cabrera, 23, who have also been convicted in the killing of Hernandez-Uribe.
Cortes-Barcenas appeared in court Tuesday, November 21, 2023, following her plea to murder in the second degree. She was sentenced to 48 years in the Colorado Department of Corrections with a mandatory five years of parole. The sentence is the maximum stipulated in her plea, which had a range from 30 to 48 years.
Judge Laura Findorff said she saw Cortes-Barcenas as the “ nexus ” of the crime, having known the victim and been involved in the break in of his residence that led to Hernandez-Uribe's murder.
Judge Findorff said she imposed the maximum sentence due to Cortes-Barcenas' “ shocking ” lack of accountability for the crime in the pre-sentencing investigation. The judge also rejected Cortes-Barcenas' attorney's assertion that Cortes-Barcenas had less of a role in the killing than other defendants.

December 19, 2023 — Kimberlee Singler, 35, had been ordered to turn over their three kids to her ex-husband, Kevin John Wentz, 38, on December 16. She and her ex-husband were experiencing a contentious divorce and custody battle over their three children after their separation in April 2018.
in September 2023, Mrs Singler filed a request for a temporary protection order in El Paso County, alleging her ex-husband had waved a knife at her. Mr Wentz denied the allegations, and the case was still open.
Then in November 2023, Larimer County Court heard an emergency motion from Kimberlee to restrict parenting time regarding the same allegations about the knife. The court found there was no imminent threat from Mr Wentz and rescinded the order.She had been ordered to drop off their three children at a Colorado Springs police station for their father's visitation on December 16 th , but failed to do so. As a result, Kimberlee was facing several motions to comply with the visitation order.
Upon receiving a 911 call about a burglary, officers initially responded to Mrs. Singler's home shortly after midnight on December 19 th . When officers arrived on the scene they observed an adult female and an 11-year-old female who had sustained injuries. Two other children, Elianna “Ellie” Wentz, a 9-year-old girl and Aden Wentz, a 7-year-old boy, were found deceased in the residence. Ellie suffered a gunshot wound to the head and cuts to her neck that caused her death. Adam was killed by a gunshot to his head, a separate autopsy states, adding he also suffered neck wounds.
According to reports written by forensic pathologist, Dr. Megan Kliesner, the children both had “potentially toxic levels of doxylamine detected in femoral blood.” Doxylamine is an antihistamine medication which is used in the treatment of insomnia and allergies. The autopsy and investigation indicated that these injuries were incurred as a result of the deliberate actions of another person.
Mrs. Singler and her surviving daughter were taken to a hospital. Her 11-year-old daughter was released from the hospital a few days after the incident and was recovering from her injuries apart from her mother.
While initially cooperating with police after her release from the hospital, at some point Mrs. Singler became uncooperative and police were unable to get in contact with her.
Kimberlee Singler was originally considered a victim, based on the initial burglary report, but she became a suspect “...over the course of the investigation.” An arrest warrant was then issued on December 26 th for Mrs. Singler, reportedly once a débutante, on murder and attempted murder charges as follows: two counts of first-degree murder — after deliberation; two counts of first-degree murder — children under the age of 12 by a person in a position of trust; two counts of child abuse resulting in death; one count of attempted first-degree murder — after deliberation; one count of attempted first-degree murder — child under the age of 12 by a person in a position of trust; one count of child abuse resulting in serious bodily injury, and one count of first-degree assault.The charges for each crime were doubled due to the children all being under the age of 12. Bond was set at $10 million.
Kimberlee Singler was last seen in the United States on December 23 rd .
After issuance of the arrest warrant, Kimberlee fled to the United Kingdom (UK), but was arrested in Kensington, west London, on December 30 th .
The UK's National Crime Agency (NCA) said she had been arrested in a hotel room in the Kensington area “without incident” and appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Monday for an extradition hearing. She was remanded in custody and ordered to appear in court on January 29 th .
Legal observers predict that she won't set foot on Colorado soil for months to a year. As of May 23, 2024, Kimberlee Singler's extradition case is ongoing.
Kimberlee Singler and Kevin Wentz were married in Greeley, Colorado.
The couple's first child was born.
The couple's second child was born.
The couple's third child was born
Kimberlee Singler and Kevin Wentz filed for divorce.
The divorce of Kimberlee Singler and Kevin Wentz became contentious, involving allegations from Mrs. Singler of child abuse and domestic violence. These accusations coincide with Mr. Wentz's parenting time, according to statement from him, that he denied. After hearing testimony, the Larimer County Court did not find the allegations to be credible.
In September 2018, the couple were ending the first summer after their divorce and the ages of their three children were then 6, 4 and 2-years-old.
In a citation for contempt of court filed by Mrs. Singler in July 2023, she stated that she and the three children were evicted from their home six months earlier in January due to what she claimed was Mr. Wentz' failure to pay money he owed her including child support and spousal maintenance.
When Mr. Wentz arrived to pick up the three children from Mrs. Singler's home on Palimino Ranch in Colorado Springs for a weekend visitation, Mrs. Singler claimed in a protective order that he brandished a knife.
Mrs. Singler applied for and was granted a Temporary Protection Order in El Paso County based on the alleged knife incident.
It may be important to note that it appears that in all of Kimberlee Singler's court motions she represented herself. No attorney is listed.
She claimed in the September 14 court document that she was a victim of domestic abuse. She went on to say that Mr. Wentz was seeking sole physical custody and sole decision-making regarding their three children, who were then 11, 7, and 9 years-old.
In a Motion to Dismiss, John Wentz denied that he ever brandished a knife and a hearing as to whether a permanent protection order would be granted was scheduled for January 24, 2024.
A hearing was held in Larimer County Court on an Emergency Motion to Restrict Parenting Time, filed by Mrs. Singler, related to the alleged knife-brandishing incident. The court found that there was no imminent threat, rescinded the order to limit parenting time, and awarded Mr. Wentz amended time with the children that was lost during Mrs. Singler's allegations.
The children were to have family time with Wentz during two periods: November 19-26 th and December 16-31 st .
The next court hearing was scheduled for January 11, 2024, in relation to a contempt motion regarding allegations that Mrs. Singler did not follow parenting time orders. Another hearing was scheduled for January 18, 2024 on a Motion to Modify Parenting Time.
According to a motion filed in Larimer County Court by Mr. Wentz, Kimberlee Singler claimed the children were ill and could not be delivered on November 19 for the scheduled parenting time with Wentz. She agreed to a November 21 date for his parental visitation.
Kimberlee Singler failed to show up at a designated police station in Colorado Springs with the three children for ordered parenting time with John Wentz. Mr. Wentz's and his attorney's attempts to contact Mrs. Singler were ignored.
Court documents show that she claimed to have taken the children to Breckenridge that day as their paternal aunt waited at the police department to pick them up.
John Wentz filed an emergency motion for law enforcement to assist in enforcing parenting time. A status conference that requires Mrs. Singler and the children to appear in person is set for December 20 at 1:30 PM. That day, a Larimer County Clerk left a voicemail on Kimberlee's phone to advise her of the order.
Colorado Springs police say they believe that the two youngest children were killed that day by Kimberlee Singler and that she also injured herself and her oldest child.
At approximately 12:29 AM, The Colorado Springs Police Communication Center received a 911 call for a burglary in the 5300 block of Palomino Ranch Point. When Colorado Springs police arrived on the scene they found two children, a 9-year-old girl and 7-year-old boy, deceased and an adult female and 11-year-old female who had survived but were suffering from injuries. The surviving adult and child were treated and sent to the hospital.
Also on December 19 th , A GoFundMe was set up to offset funeral costs for the children and to help with costs associated with the care of the surviving child.
On the day which the courts had scheduled a status-conference, Kimberlee Singler went to a computer in an undisclosed library and, representing herself as legal counsel, filed a motion to postpone the conference for at least 10 days. In the motion she described her injuries as laceration to her wrists and neck. “I am weak and in a great deal of pain and I will require further medical treatment.” She added that she also needed “ time to heal” and to grieve the loss of her children.
The last time Kimberlee Singler was seen in the United States, Colorado Springs police report.
Investigators established probable cause and obtained an arrest warrant for Kimberlee Singler on suspicions of the 10 charges listed above, according to a Colorado Springs Police Department memo. The court set a $10 million bond. The Colorado Violent Offender Fugitive Task Force then launched an effort to locate Mrs. Singler.
Kimberlee Singler was taken into custody in a hotel room in the Kensington district of London in the United Kingdom (UK) without incident.
Kimberlee Singler has her first court appearance at the Westminster Magistrates' Courts in the UK.
In a motion filed with the Larimer County Court, Mr. Wentz said he learned “through a petition” filed with the Department that Kimberlee had told police that he was the 'intruder' that had entered their home. Colorado Springs Police said that John Wentz “...had nothing to do with the murder of the children,” according to the January 2 nd motion.
Funerals were scheduled for the 7-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter of Kimberlee Singler and John Wentz.
Kimberlee Singler returned to the Westminster Magistrates' Court as the extradition process continues. Legal observers predict that she won't set foot on Colorado soil for months to a year. If the extradition is approved, she will immediately face 10 counts filed by the 4 th Judicial District including two charges of first degree murder and another of attempted murder in what Colorado Springs police believe were attacks on her own children.
Extradition proceedings are ongoing.
