A Kansas City, Kansas, man will be sentenced March 25 after pleading guilty to killing his 3-year-old daughter.
KSHB-TV reported 30-year-old Howard Jansen III pleaded guilty last week to second-degree murder and five other charges. Police found the body of his daughter, Olivia Jansen, in July 2020 in a wooded area in Kansas City, Kansas, hours after Jansen reported her missing. An autopsy found she had signs of physical abuse and had died of a brain bleed.
Jansen's girlfriend, Jacqulyn Kirkpatrick, is serving a 31-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to second-degree murder in Olivia's death.
