Kansas – Kansas Father Charged With His 8-Year-Old Daughter’s Murder
Almost two months after the death of an 8-year-old girl, the Wichita Police Department has arrested her father, 51-year-old Thomas R. Gatewood.
On May 8, first responders went to a home in the 600 block of N. Oliver after getting the report of an unresponsive child, but it was too late to save the child. Court documents identify her as Jeanetta Gatewood.
The Exploited and Missing Child Unit and homicide detectives began investigating. They recently presented the case to the district attorney’s office, and a warrant was issued for Thomas Gatewood on Tuesday.Jury convicts Wichita man
