FBI agents are searching in the metro area for evidence that would tie a suspect to several murders and disappearances, a family member of one of the alleged victims says.
Federal agents are searching for evidence to charge Scott Kimball, a convict with a lengthy history of financial crimes, in the death of Kaysi McLeod and the disappearance of Jennifer Marcum, Leann Emry and Terry Kimball, Kimball’s 60-year-old uncle, said Marcum’s father, Robert.
“They said they were going to do searches around property that he used to own,” Robert Marcum said Thursday. “They are trying to get enough evidence to try him for murder.”
The investigators are searching for evidence in a neighborhood near 146th Avenue and Huron Street in Adams County, according to a 9News report.
A hunter found bones in September in deep snow in Jackson County, and DNA taken from them matched that of McLeod, who was reported missing in August 2003.
A second search by FBI agents this month turned up more human remains and evidence, an FBI spokeswoman has said.
“This guy definitely needs to be caught, or he’ll be back on the street,” Marcum said.
Kimball has not been charged with murder. He is being held on other charges.
