Butler Police Department Press Release: Man Found Dead In Home


On  05-21-2014 Butler Police Officers responded to a well being check.  Upon arrival Officers found a white male identified as Gregory Breeden laying on the floor.  It appeared that Mr. Breeden had been dead for several days.  The body was turned over to the Bates County Coroner for further investigation.

Breeden received notoriety in the mid 1990s when police investigated him in connection with the deaths of seven women whose bodies had been found in the Missouri River over a 12-year period. Some of the women had been prostitutes and some of their bodies had been mutilated, police said at the time.

He ultimately spent 10 years in a Missouri prison for convictions in bad-check cases. After being paroled, he was arrested in 2002 for soliciting a prostitute in Kansas City and was returned to prison. After his 2004 release, he was charged with threatening a federal judge who had ruled against him in a civil case, but a jury acquitted him at trial.
