The Kansas mother who neighbors allege kicked 5-year-old Zoey Felix
and other family members out of the house before the girl was
brutally raped and murdered by an acquaintance had previous run-ins
with police, according to jail records.
Holly Jo Felix, 36, was booked into the Shawnee County Jail in
November 2022, records indicate.
In March, Felix pleaded guilty to a charge of felony reckless
aggravated battery causing bodily harm with a deadly weapon against
a victim. The victim is referred to in court documents as "ZF" with
a 2018 birth date, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported.
In the same case, she pleaded guilty to driving under the influence
with a child in the vehicle. Two domestic battery charges and a
single charge of criminal restraint were reportedly dismissed at the
time as well, according to the outlet.
Felix is currently on probation in connection with the incident.

She was also previously convicted of possessing stolen property and
domestic battery in Nevada, and was at one point barred from having
contact with Zoey's father, Ezepquiel Felix-Guerrero, as well as
another victim believed to be Zoey's half-sister, per the Capital-
Journal.
On Monday, Zoey was allegedly sexually assaulted and killed,
according to the Topeka Police Department.
The little girl’s body was discovered in a field near a homeless
camp she was reportedly staying at with her father, half-sister and
their acquaintance Mickel Cherry — two weeks after her mother
reportedly threw them out of their home.
Cherry — a 25-year-old man who lived at the same residence as Zoey’s
family before relocating with the trio to the homeless camp — was
arrested Tuesday in connection with the incident.
He faces charges of first-degree murder and rape, according to
police.
It’s unclear if he retained an attorney to comment on his behalf.
Neighbors said police and Child Protective Services often paid
visits to the Felix's home. They said Zoey was often left to care
for herself.
“Zoey has been on her own the entire time,” neighbor Sharon Williams
told KCTV-TV.
“Everybody on the block took care of Zoey,” Sheryl Tyree, another
neighbor, told the Capital-Journal. “Everybody loved Zoey, except
her parents.”
