Agents from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation have arrested the wife of Ada Pastor David Evans in connection with his death. Kristie Dawnell Evans, 47, was taken into custody yesterday, after allegedly confessing her role in her husband’s death to agents. Last night, agents also arrested 26-year-old Kahlil Deamie Square in connection with David Evans’ death. Kristie Evans is being held in the Pontotoc County Jail and Square is in the Cleveland County Jail.
The investigation began on March 22, when the Ada Police Department requested OSBI assistance with a homicide. Just after 1 a.m., Kristie Evans placed a 9-1-1 call stating an intruder had entered her home at 1420 Northcrest Drive and shot her husband. When officers arrived at the residence, they found 50-year-old Pastor David Evans with a gunshot wound. He died at the scene. The Ada Police Department requested a full investigation by the OSBI.
Based on evidence collected and interviews conducted, Kristie and Square were identified as suspects. Yesterday morning, Kristie met agents at the Ada Police Department where she allegedly confessed and was immediately placed into custody. Law enforcement were able to locate Square at a residence on South Harrah Road in Newalla., Cleveland County. Just after 11 p.m., Square was taken into custody without incident.
