Probable cause: Carl Junction man tampered with evidence after shooting, killing girlfriend

A Carl Junction man was taken into custody Thursday after shooting and killing his girlfriend.

At this point, the only charge against Jeremiah Blake Tyner, 23, is tampering with evidence in a felony prosecution, according to Jasper County Circuit Court records.

A Jasper County Sheriff's Office news release said Amanda Parker, 40, Carl Junction, was dead on arrival at a local hospital.








The incident is described in the probable cause statement:

On 6/29/2020 Jeremiah Tyner was at 10487 County Road 270 Carl Junction MO in Jasper County when he discharged a firearm inside a camper trailer on the property being used as his residence. 

Amanda Parker, with whom Tyner is engaged in a romantic relationship, was struck by a bullet in the upper chest area and transported to an area hospital where she was later pronounced deceased. No one else was said to be present at the residence at the time of the shooting.

Deputies immediately responded to the aforementioned address upon notification of the shooting location. Evidence discovered at the scene of the shooting suggested that Tyner attempted to conceal blood evidence by the use of chemicals, paper towels and/or other cleaning supplies.

How did he get away with murdering her

He didn't. This is a case I missed following up on. According to court records, he pleaded guilty last year to first degree manslaughter and under a plea agreement with the Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney's office was sentenced to seven years in prison.
