Joplin man to stand trial for shooting death of Granby woman

Windell Daniels, 31, Joplin, waived his preliminary hearing Thursday and was bound over for trial on charges of involuntary manslaughter and armed criminal action in connection with the July shooting death of Kelly Jean Crawford, 24, Granby.

Daniels was initially cited for second degree assault and armed criminal action after the shooting, which took place at a home on County Road 10 in the eastern part of Jasper County. The charges were upgraded after Ms. Crawford’s death.

Daniels next hearing is scheduled for 9 a.m. March 31.

In the meantime, Daniels has a March 11 arraignment scheduled in Jasper County Circuit Court on a misdemeanor charge of driving while intoxicated.
