Two people are arrested in connection to a July murder in rural Franklin County.

 The Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI), along with the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office, have arrested two subjects connected to death of Nathan Boggs. 

On July 28 of last year at around 8:45 p.m., deputies from the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office responded to a home in rural Franklin Co., near Princeton, Kansas, after gunfire was reported. Deputies found 42 year old Nathan Boggs, of Ottawa, suffering from gunshot wounds. Despite life-saving measures, Boggs died at the scene. His death was investigated as a homicide. 

Yesterday afternoon, KBI agents and Franklin County deputies arrested 41-year-old Timothy S. Corn and 33 year old Jessica Smith, both of Ottawa. Both were arrested on warrants for first-degree murder and interference with law enforcement. 

The Franklin County Attorney’s Office is expected to prosecute the case. The investigation is ongoing.
