Charge: Federal Way woman stabbed 100 times

Posted by John de Leon

A 29-year-old Federal Way man was charged today with first-degree murder in connection with the stabbing death of his girlfriend.

Kenneth Mace is accused of stabbing his 20-year-old girlfriend Melinda S. O’Meara more than 100 times during an argument late Friday at their home at the Camelot Mobile Home Park.

According charging documents, Mace entered a neighbor’s trailer at park at 11:21 p.m. Friday and asked to use the phone to call 911. The neighbor later told officers Mace was “distraught and appeared on the verge of tears,” the documents say. Mace allegedly told the neighbor, “I think someone is about to kill my wife,” according to charging documents.

After overhearing Mace’s conversation with the 911 operator, the neighbor flagged down a security officer, who was patrolling the mobile home park, located at 3001 S. 288th St., and the security officer handcuffed Mace until police arrived, according to the documents.

Officers entered Mace’s trailer and found O’Meara face down on the kitchen floor surrounded by blood. An autopsy by the King County Medical Examiner’s Office revealed that O’Meara had been stabbed more than 100 times and virtually all of her vital organs had been punctured.

Mace, who is being held in the King C0unty Jail in lieu of $2 million bail, will be arraigned July 24.

Murder charges: Federal Way man stabbed girlfriend over 100 times

First-degree murder charges have been filed against a 29-year-old Federal Way man in the grisly death of his girlfriend.

Kenneth "Kenny" Mace is accused of stabbing 20-year-old Melinda "Mindy" O'Meara more than 100 times on July 6 at the Camelot Square Mobile Home Park on South 288th Street.

Mace is being held on $2 million bail and will be arraigned July 24 at the Regional Justice Center. According to Facebook, Mace is a 2001 graduate of Thomas Jefferson High School and O'Meara is a 2009 grad of Decatur High School.

An autopsy revealed that virtually all of O'Meara's vital organs were punctured, according to charging documents. The blood splatter indicated a significant struggle, according to autopsy, but Mace had few signs of injury.

Police found several knives next to O'Meara's body, including a broken knife handle and a barbecue spatula with serrated edges.

According to a police interview with Mace's mother following the murder, the family was trying to convince him to get counseling.

According to his mother, about a week before the murder, Mace had returned to his home to find O'Meara's family moving her property out of their residence. She said after that day, something "snapped." His mental processing wasn't the same and he didn't act the same. She stated that even the emails he sent her were different.

After questioning at the Federal Way police department, Mace stated that he was a habitual drug user, including marijuana, heroin, Oxycontin and other opiate drugs in the past. A drug recognition expert detected a distinct odor commonly associated with meth use, and also noted that Mace's pupils were constricted, a characteristic of a person "coming down" from meth.

Federal Way police responded to the mobile home park at approximately 11:21 p.m. July 6 after a neighbor called 911 to report the stabbing. When police arrived, they entered the trailer where O'Meara was laying face down on the kitchen floor surrounded in blood, according to the police report.

After the neighbor called 911, he flagged down a passing security officer. While waiting for police to arrive, the security officer detained Mace in handcuffs and in the back of his vehicle.

The neighbor stated that he was in his living room when Mace entered his residence through an unlocked door, according to the report. He noticed that Mace was "distraught and appeared on the verge of tears."

The neighbor stated that Mace asked to borrow his phone so he could call 911. When the neighbor asked why, Mace responded, "I think someone is about to kill my wife." The neighbor said that while he was on the phone with dispatchers, Mace stated, "I stabbed her," the report said.

When police arrived, the suspect told them the knife was "on the floor next to the one she came at me with."

According to the report, the man told police that he returned from a long day at work and all he wanted to do was take a shower when "she started talking in demon talk."

Mace told police that he returned home from work just before 10 p.m. from a new job that he started that day. He stated that O'Meara immediately began harassing him, so he went into the bathroom to call his mom, documents said.

Mace stated that when he came out, O'Meara was sitting on the couch with a knife in her hand and that he thought she was going to stab him. According to Mace, he decided to throw a large glass marijuana bong at her head and was able to get the knife away from her. He then said he didn't remember anything after that.

Upon further questioning, Mace recalled that he was able to eat a pork chop, take a shower and take a "hit" from the bong before throwing it at O'Meara.

Federal Way police report previous contacts with the man, but no cases of domestic violence between the man and the deceased woman. Mace does have a felony conviction for second-degree assault in 2000, according to charging papers.

Ezell's named America's most life-changing fried chicken

Posted by Rebekah Denn

Remember when Dick's Drive-In got a nod as the country's most life-changing burgers? Now another Seattle institution has nabbed that title for fried chicken, with Ezell's Famous Chicken taking the number one spot in an Esquire magazine poll. Editors wrote that they were "shocked" by the Northwest win on a list that was otherwise loaded with Southern favorites.

Company CEO and co-founder Lewis Rudd told Esquire the secret to the Oprah-blessed place's success is "fresh ingredients and homemade preparation."

After 28 years of community support and crunchy drumsticks, the loyalty of their fans made a difference too.

Rudd told me that he first learned about the Ezell's nomination from a food services rep. "He emailed me a link to it. At that time, we were 5 percent of the vote." Price's Chicken Coop in North Carolina was far in the lead with 69 percent.

"We began sending the word out."

Rudd emailed board members and all his managers and assistant managers. They passed it on and shared it on Facebook.

"We started seeing the needle move." The Ezell's vote went up to 12 percent, then 30 percent... and then they were ahead. "It was very exciting... we were getting calls from all over," Rudd said, including check-ins from his 82-year-old mother back home in Texas. (She's not online, but one of his brothers kept her posted.)

It's not the first national nod for Ezell's. The place is known for winning a thumbs-up from Winfrey, who became a fan after she had an assistant call up and ask to have some delivered when she was in town one day. It was a Saturday, Rudd recalled, and they told the assistant they didn't deliver on Saturdays. "A voice in the background said, 'Give me that phone!'

They asked how they knew it was really Oprah Winfrey on the line. She replied "Bring that chicken down, and you'll see," Rudd said.

On Sunday, she ordered more.

The Esquire vote came after a big junction point for the business. As we mentioned a few days ago, after a long legal struggle, co-founder Ezell Stephens -- the Ezell behind Ezell's -- founded a different chain called Heaven Sent Fried Chicken, which made our "Best Road Food in the West" list.

(Hanna Raskin did a bird vs. bird taste test in Seattle Weekly and pronounced Heaven Sent as the victor.)

Both chains have the right to use the original recipe.

"After 50 years of friendship, and more than 25 years of being in business together, (Stephens) decided he wanted to go in a different direction," Rudd said.

Are they still friends?

"We're still friends. We're not speaking friends at this point."

Hopefully, he said, they'll get back there. Right now, he's elated by the Esquire appreciation and happy to still be pursuing "the dream we began" of someday having a national business.

Last year, three new Ezell's branches opened. Rudd hopes to build another few stores in the next 12 months "and eventually an additional 20 units throughout the Puget Sound region." They're registered as an official franchise company with the state, and looking at locations in Mill Creek and Federal Way, among other sites. "We brought on a gentleman that worked with Cinnabon and has a huge amount of restaurant experience to help us with innovation and tweaking the menu and the brand a little bit to give it more of a national appeal," Rudd said.

They'll also be an official partner in this year's Torchlight Parade at Seafair. For all the national aspirations, Seattle is still their town. "We definitely want all our loyal customers and fans to know how much we thank them and appreciate them."
