Freedom Hunter dies after acquittal in Kansas crime spree
James C. Hunter Jr. who had been freed after an acquittal on four murder related counts in 1985 suffered a fatal heart attack four days later. His death at a Kansas City hospital shocked supporters and prosecutors alike as relatives recalled his attempt to rebuild his life. The case involved a crime spree on Interstate 70 with several victims and an eventual retrial ordered by the Kansas Supreme Court. Hunter, 36, had faced multiple charges including first degree murder and kidnapping. His father blamed the retrial and prosecutorial rhetoric for his son’s decline, while others noted the ambivalent justice surrounding the Ellis County case.
