Killer Kylr Sparred With Judge As Families Of His Victims Grieved

More important than Kansas City metro social media chatter is what the families have to say about this killer who targeted their loved ones.

Still, KILLER KYLR attempted to steal the spotlight . . .

Judge Collins denied Yust’s attorneys’ motion for a new trial. His attorneys did not comment as they left the courthouse. Yust refused to answer any of the judge’s routine questions that are asked at the end of a sentencing hearing about his legal counsel.

Judge Collins asked, “Have you been able to talk to them about your case over the past, I believe, four years?” Yust replied, “What do you think?” At one point, Yust told the judge, “I admire your attempts to foil my appeals but no thank you. Sir, I’m not going to be discussing this with you.”

So far this is the best story we've seen without a pay wall . . .
