It sounds like a twisted plot ripped from a crime drama. An Ohio man allegedly asked his boss for time off to mourn his pregnant girlfriend’s death, before she was even dead, reported the New York Post.
Prosecutors say Kayvon Warren, 30, didn’t just predict tragedy, he planned it. On March 4, 2023, the very day his girlfriend India Kinamore, 26, was due to give birth to their child, Warren allegedly recruited two buddies to stage a fake burglary at her Colerain Township home. The real mission? To make sure neither Kinamore nor the baby lived to see the day.
“This should have been one of the happiest days of India’s life,” said Hamilton County Prosecutor Connie Pillich as she announced indictments Thursday. “It’s heartbreaking. My office will see that justice is done for both India and her baby.”
The alleged motive was as messy as it was heartless: Warren was broke, seeing another woman, had even lost his home — and had tried to pressure Kinamore into having an abortion. When she refused, prosecutors say he turned to Robert Ervin, 20, and Lamar Morris Suggs, 22, to help end her life instead.
Around 6 a.m., the trio allegedly broke in, shot Kinamore dead, and bolted. But Warren’s paper trail, financial records, phone logs, and that eyebrow-raising bereavement request, gave him away.
Now all three face 13 counts including aggravated murder, burglary, and felony assault. Ervin and Suggs also face weapons charges. Warren is being held without bail, Ervin’s locked up on $300,000 bail, and Suggs’ conditions weren’t immediately clear.
If convicted, they’ll likely never walk free again.
For Kinamore’s family, the tragedy is unspeakable. For everyone else, it’s a jaw-dropping reminder, when someone asks for bereavement leave before a death, it may not be coincidence.
