After several months of investigation, Jackson County prosecutors announced Monday that they will not file charges in the deaths of a Lee's Summit policeman's wife, who refused medical treatment, and her stillborn baby. Misty Horner, 30, died Jan. 9, a month after her daughter, Sydney Kay, was stillborn. "This case was tragic and disturbing," Jackson County Prosecutor Jim Kanatzar said during a news conference Monday afternoon. "I want to assure everyone that my staff and I gave this case the attention and the careful consideration it deserved." He said there was no evidence that someone else kept Horner from getting medical attention or that she did not make her own decisions about declining medical treatment.
