How Did Chiefs Fan Froze To Death? What’s Caused The Tragedy?
Weamer-Lee attended high school with David Harrington, 37, Ricky Johnson, 38, and Clayton McGeeney, 36. On January 9, two days after all five of the pals arrived to watch football, their bodies were found outside Jordan Willis’ rental property in Kansas City, according to a story published in the Daily Mail on Friday.
As previously reported, Weamer-Lee arrived at Willis’ house on January 7 at approximately 7 p.m., and departed around midnight, while the four other men were still up playing “Jeopardy!” according to his lawyer Andrew Talge.

On January 9, local police discovered Johnson, McGeeney, and Harrington’s frozen-to-death remains in Willis’s garden.
The homeowner maintains that he was “obliged” that the bodies were present.
He claims that he was unaware of the dead corpses outside his house until one victim’s fiancée, unable to reach her soon-to-be husband, smashed through his back door and discovered a dead body in the yard.
Since then, a fifth individual has come forward to claim that he was there at the watch party and that, as of January 7 at midnight, all three victims were still alive.

In other words, the three bodies frozen to death at some point over the 48 hours between that evening and the discovery of the bodies.
The police have stated unequivocally that they are not looking into the matter as a homicide and that they do not suspect foul play.
Weamer-Lee went to Park Hill High School with Willis and the three men who were discovered dead, and they were childhood friends, the Daily Mail said.

Social media images feature Weamer-Lee and his companions wearing Kansas City Chiefs shirts and beaming broadly.
Nonetheless, experts who talked with Fox News Digital all said that the fatalities were probably unintentional and resulted from drug usage for recreational purposes gone catastrophically wrong.
“If they all took alcohol, they would not collapse around the same time. People react differently to large doses of alcohol, metabolize it at different speeds,” forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden said. “They react to it, but they don’t react right away, [and] they’re conscious enough to go indoors if they feel like they’re going to pass out.

“It would be the type of drug that causes a person to be disoriented,” Baden said, ruling out carbon monoxide because the men’s bodies were found outside. “Fentanyl-type drugs can cause disorientation and can cause a rapid sleep-like loss of consciousness.
According to Baden, dying from an overdose of fentanyl or a fentanyl analog—drugs with a similar but somewhat different molecular structure—can take up to an hour. Naloxone can save fentanyl overdose victims from slipping further into a coma after they lose consciousness.
“It isn’t a sudden death in minutes,” he stated.
