Wheatland Man Pleads Not Guilty In Deadly Rampage

A Wheatland man has pleaded not guilty to charges that he killed his three sons and his brother in a shooting rampage last summer. Platte County Attorney Eric Jones said Everett Conant III entered pleas Tuesday of not guilty and not guilty by mental illness before District Judge John Brooks. Conant is accused of shooting and killing his sons — 11-year-old Joseph, 13-year-old Charles and 18-year-old Everett, as well as their 33-year-old uncle Nacuma Roland Conant. The defendant is also charged with attempted murder in the wounding of his wife during the shootings on July 7. Jones said no other court dates were set and Conant remains in custody.
