Shon Pernice crashes Fourth of July party, arrested for disturbing the peace

Shon Pernice knows how to spoil a Fourth of July party and keep his lawyers busy. Kansas City police arrested Shon Pernice — whose wife, Renee Pernice, disappeared in January and is believed to be dead — for disturbing the peace after neighbors complained that he was “acting strangely” and “yelling and screaming outside his home” on Saturday night.

KSHB Channel 41 interviewed an unidentified woman who claimed Pernice showed up stumbling drunk at a Fourth of July party at a park near 64th and Jarboe. And he brought his 9 and 7-year-old sons. There’s more:

Witnesses say Shon grew belligerent.

Police arrested him for screaming at a neighbor, the same neighbor

who accused Shon of stealing his gun. Shon appeared in Clay County

court this week on felony theft charges. He was arrested in February on

a gun theft charge unrelated to the disappearance of his wife,

35-year-old Renee Pernice.

Your wife’s missing and presumed dead. Police call you “a person of interest” in her disappearance. And you’re fighting your in-laws for custody of your children. So you get drunk and show up at a party with your kids to confront the the neighbor you’re accused of stealing a gun from? Way to lay low, Shon.
