Johnson County prosecutors urge Judge David Cox to reject two written guilty pleas by 18 year old Kesean Ford for involuntary manslaughter and homicide by vehicle by drag racing in the 2023 fatal crash that killed 22 year old Jennifer Russell in Waterloo. Ford faces remaining charges including homicide by vehicle reckless driving and excessive speed over 25 mph. Trial is delayed as the judge reviews the legality of accepting lesser included pleas without prosecution agreement.
