A Roeland Park woman has been convicted in the Christmas Eve death of a pregnant woman and her unborn child in 2023, according to news release from the Johnson County District Attorney’s Office.
As part of plea agreement, Izabel Reed, 26, pleaded no contest in Johnson County District Court Wednesday to two counts of distribution of drugs causing a death in connection with the death of 31-year-old Alexandrea Hunter and her unborn child on Dec. 24, 2023, in Roeland Park.

As part of her plea agreement, prosecutors amended the charges to two counts of distribution of drugs causing a death. The remaining charges were dismissed.
