A Missouri judge has denied extradition for Daniel Ojeda, a Kansas City man wanted for multiple child sex crimes in Kansas, including rape and aggravated criminal sodomy. Ojeda, 37, remains in custody in Jackson County with no bond as he faces charges from 2012 to 2022 involving victims under 14. Meanwhile, Marcellus Williams, a death row inmate claiming innocence for a 1998 murder, is scheduled for execution on September 24. His legal team has sought a stay of execution, arguing due process violations and highlighting doubts raised by the St. Louis County Prosecutor about DNA evidence related to the case. The NAACP and relatives of the victim have opposed the execution, citing racial disparities in the application of the death penalty. The Missouri Supreme Court is set to hear appeals regarding Williams' conviction and the previously dissolved clemency board's investigation into his case.
