On the morning of February 1, 2018, 38-year-old Kenneth R. Clark was fatally shot during a violent home invasion at a mobile home park in Springfield, Missouri. Clark was visiting the residence of his girlfriend, Stacey Herman, when three masked men wearing bandanas forced their way inside. One of the intruders told Clark he was going to pay for what he had done earlier that day before shooting him in the chest. The assailants took a wooden box from the floor and fled; Clark died from his wounds, the city’s second homicide of the year.

Springfield Police investigators interviewed Herman and collected physical evidence at the scene, including a shotgun, drug paraphernalia, and DNA swabs. Detectives identified three suspects: Shane Stamm, Dustin Stacey, and Jerry Earls Jr. Investigators believe the killing was retaliatory, connected to a dispute over drug debts or competing drug distribution.

Does anyone have information about Clark, the confrontation that morning, or the wooden box taken from the home?
