Remember Matthew Davis? In 2004, he dumped the freshly dead corpse of his girlfriend, 22-year-old Amber McGathey, into the back of his car, after she died that night taking drugs with Davis. She overdosed, and he wrapped her in a sheet. Not to suffer a spoiled evening, Davis drove from his apartment in the River Market to West 39th Street and picked up a woman. He told her that the sheeted bundle in his backseat was laundry.
McGathey's rotting body was found in his car a week later.
Davis was sentenced to 22 years in prison for abandoning a corpse, but his lawyer got the sentence overturned because of a prosecutorial mishandling. His trial was thrown out, and a new trial was granted. That trial turned out more favorably for Davis, who was sentenced to eight years in prison with credit for time served. Because he'd already spent more than five years in jail for an unrelated charge, he walked away scot-free.
Well, Davis is back: and this time, he's going to jail.
In April, Davis ate lunch at Joe's Crab Shack and fled without paying, grabbing a bucket of beers as he left. He tried to run over a cop in his escape and barricaded himself in his Olathe apartment in an eight-hour (presumably booze-fueled) standoff.
Davis was sentenced to three years on Monday, according to The Kansas City Star. He struck a plea deal in which prosecutors dropped the charges of fleeing police, theft and obstructing justice. In typical fashion, Davis will serve his time concurrently with the time he was given for an unrelated DUI charge.
The weird part is that Davis is a trust-fund baby and gets $8,000 per month, even though he's a total cad. That's more than enough to pay for a proper burial for his girlfriend -- not to mention a few crab cakes and an eight-pack.

Let's see... 8k/mo for 36 mos = 288K plus interest. That should be one hell of a comming out party.
And the crazy thing is. he had freinds with him. and ordered all kinds of drinks and food. that was hundreds of dollars. all the while telling the friends he had the tab.they had all planned it in advance. come on dirtbag, stay off the drugs and pay your bill!
quess he wont be eatting shrimp in jail.
proof money doesn't make a person. This guy is getting 96K a year to sit on his ass because his fucking stupid father gives it to him. His father is an idiot to give a person enough money not to work. All I have to say is great job parents, you produced an unproductive piece of shit. At least his dad pays taxes, but his spawn is as worthless as all the gang bangers and thugs.
