PREWITT, William Matthew "Matt" n/a - 1992

Former Holden resident, William Matthew (Matt) Prewitt, 19, was found dead of a 
gunshot wound in rural Lee's Summit over the weekend. Prewitt was found on his 
grandparents' property at approximately 10 a.m. Sunday. The Jackson County 
Medical Examiner's Office said it believes that the gunshot wound was self-
inflicted, but that an investigation will continue. Prewitt was a 1992 graduate 
of the Lee's Summit High School and was enrolled at Longview Community College 
in Lee's Summit. He was the son of Patricia Ann Prewitt and the late William 
Prewitt of Holden. The family owned Prewitt Lumber in Holden until Prewitt was 
shot and killed at his rural home north of town in 1984. Mrs. Prewitt, who still 
claims that her husband was killed by an unknown intruder, was later convicted 
of the shooting and sentenced to life in prison.
