Chiefs Fan Who Hosted Deadly Party Allegedly Suffered From Alcoholism For 15+ Years

A source close to Jordan Willis, the Kansas City Chiefs fan who hosted a watch party that turned deadly, is disputing the viral claims that Willis was known as the "chemist" and is stating he is not a "mad scientist."

As The Blast has previously reported, the bodies of three men -- Ricky Johnson, David Harrington, and Clayton McGeeney -- were found in the backyard of Willis's residence on January 9, allegedly frozen to death.

However, the victims' families are questioning Willis's story because the bodies were not discovered until two days after the watch party was held.

As officials continue their investigation, many sources close to the victims are giving insight into the group of friends and what their relationships were like.

Jordan Willis Is 'Devastated' By The Loss Of His Friends

David Harrington’s cousin recently came out, claiming that Willis was known for making drug cocktails and many of his friends referred to him as “the chemist.”

“Jordan’s ‘the chemist,’ bro. Jordan’s ‘the chemist,’” Clayton McGeeney’s cousin, Caleb, told NewsNation’s Alex Caprariello a few days ago. “They all knew him as that. It was easy for them to go have fun, but he f—ed up, he made a mistake."

However, another source is putting those claims to rest.

"He never manufactured anything, that's not what he would do," an unnamed source told reporter Alex Caprariello. "That's so crazy to me that people would actually think, just because of his profession, that he is a mad scientist."

As you may know, Willis is an HIV scientist, but the source who spoke with Caprariello says that should not indicate that he played a part in his friends' deaths nor did he create any mixed concoctions for his friends.

"The whole country is pointing fingers at him, but he's had zero time to grieve," the source added, "and now they are taking another life, essentially. He's never going to be able to get over this."

Following the deaths of his friends, Willis voluntarily checked himself into rehab, as this was a "gigantic wake-up call."

The source also claims he suffered from depression and alcoholism over the past 15+ years, and would use drugs recreationally, but does not believe he is a narcotic addict.

It is unclear what addiction Willis checked himself into rehab for.

Toxicology Report Confirms Drugs Found In Kansas City Chiefs Fans' Systems

Following speculation surrounding the deaths of three Kansas City Chiefs fans, a toxicology report, that had reportedly been shared with the victims' families, confirmed drugs were found in their systems.

As previously reported, the bodies of Ricky Johnson, David Harrington, and Clayton McGeeney were not found until after McGeeney’s fiancée broke into Willis’s property -- two days after the watch party was held.

The Kansas City Police Department has previously stated that the case is “100% not being investigated as a homicide.”
