UPDATE: Jefferson City murder suspect indicted

A Cole County grand jury has indicted a Jefferson City double murder suspect.

35-year-old Damien Davis of Kansas City has been indicted on two counts of first degree murder and five other felonies. The indictment replaces earlier charges that were filed in Late November.

Cole County prosecutors say Davis allegedly killed J. Pfenny’s employee Skyler Smock and customer Corey Thames in late November.

Graphic court documents obtained by 939 the Eagle quote witnesses inside the restaurant as telling police that Davis had a “smirk” on his face when he walked past the victims’ bodies.
