Butts, who is a former resident of Joplin, Carthage and Neosho, according to online court records, is charged with killing Jeremy Murphy, 47, Anderson, and Craig Guinn, 59, Pineville. He also was cited for the attempted murder of Seth Guinn, 27, Pineville, and with interference with law enforcement. Seth Guinn is still listed in critical condition at Freeman West Hospital, Joplin.
