DA Greg Willis Announces Life without Parole Sentence in 2017 Frisco Capital Murder Cold Case Investigation and Prosecution Collin County District Attorney Greg Willis announced that Kerrico Carr, 44, of McKinney, was sentenced to Life in Prison without the Possibility of Parole after a Collin County jury found him guilty of a 2017 Capital Murder in Frisco. The Crime On June 30, 2017 at 10:46am, Frisco police responded to a neighborhood after receiving reports of a gunshot and a masked man armed with a firearm. Upon arrival, officers located the victim in a nearby yard with a fatal gunshot wound to the back. Eyewitnesses reported seeing two men arrive in a grayish-brown van. The driver was described as a shorter, heavyset man, while the passenger was taller and wearing a ski mask. Witnesses stated the driver approached the victim’s car parked outside his house. When the victim saw the men, he took off running between houses. The masked passenger chased after him and fired a single shot, striking the victim in the back. Both suspects then fled the scene in the van. The Investigation On the day of the murder, investigators spoke with members of the victim’s family, who stated the victim owed money to Carr and had been receiving threatening messages from him. After showing a photo lineup to the victim’s girlfriend, a man was initially arrested. Subsequent investigation revealed this man was nowhere near the crime scene, and he was later released. The case went cold after that. In 2023, the case was assigned to @FriscoPD Detectives Kyle Marks and Sanja Trtanj for a fresh look. Their new investigation identified a suspect who was present at the time of the murder. This suspect confirmed he was with Kerrico Carr on the day of the shooting and that Carr fired the fatal shot. Detectives then obtained an arrest warrant for Carr, who was arrested after being released from a Federal Correctional Facility in Arkansas, where he had been serving time for a federal criminal conviction for the offense of Conspiracy to Commit Identity Theft. Trial and Sentence During the trial, prosecutors presented a recorded jail call in which Carr admitted he was present at the scene of the murder and stated he had gone there to collect money the victim owed him. A co-defendant also testified against Carr, and his testimony was corroborated by the eyewitnesses and cell phone location data. The jury found Carr guilty of Capital Murder. He was automatically sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Judge Jennifer Edgeworth presided over the trial and pronounced the mandatory sentence. Statement from DA Greg Willis “Violent criminals should know that there is no statute of limitations for murder, and police and prosecutors never forget. This conviction brings delayed justice to a grieving family and ensures a violent murderer will never be free to walk our streets again,” said DA Willis after sentencing. Prosecution Team: Assistant Criminal District Attorneys Nick Lawrance and Kailey Gillman prosecuted the case, assisted by District Attorney Investigators Michael Coleman and Laurie Gibbs and with legal support from Amy Murphy and John Rolater and victim support from Valerie Miller. collincountyda.com/da-greg-willis… #PursuingJustice #ProtectingOurCommunity #CollinCountyDA #CollinCounty
