Woman Condemned

Lacy Lyons, 35, of Eugene, Oregon, will return to Lane County Circuit Court for sentencing on Tuesday. Lyons’ attorney, David Saydack, told jurors in an opening statement to the trial that his client had shot and killed Turnage, who had been her boyfriend, after enduring months of threats that led her to believe that he eventually would kill her. Lyons testified in her own defense at trial earlier this week, according to court records. Lyons walked away from the park after killing her boyfriend, and later called 911 from a downtown coffee shop to report the incident. The prosecutor added that during a subsequent interview with police, Lyons discussed the “toxic nature” of her relationship with Turnage but never asserted that she feared Turnage was going to use deadly force against her on the night of the shooting. Turnage was unarmed when police went to the park and found his body in the back seat of a Ford Explorer that the couple had called home. The couple had been campin...

Whitney Gray had a bad heroin habit. I told you about it back in June of 2016 . She and her boyfriend, Brandon Griswold, had amassed a $650 - $700 tab with their drug dealers/roommates at Howe Garden Apartments at 1921 Greenwood Ave. on Nashville's east side, Preston Claybrooks and Alexandria Grubbs. When they realized they had no way to pay it they decided to kill them. Around 10 a.m. the next morning, they crept into the couples room as they slept. Whitney was armed with a hammer, Brandon had a music stand. They beat the couple until their skulls crashed in and then Brandon finished the job by slitting both of their throats. The murderous, heroin-spiked couple shoved the dead roommates in a closet, piled towels and a foam mattress on top of them, and promptly forgot about them. Whitney went to work a few hours later. She and Brandon decided they needed to vacate the premises when the bodies began to smell. They were the leaseholders on the apartment so when Preston Cla...

The confusing case of Brina Nie and her deadly Easter Sunday murder spree has just gotten more confusing. The main reason this case is so fascinating is because of the neighbors. Just moments after the first post went up earlier this month, two of Brina's neighbors posted on the Facebook page for TWC . Both revealed their heartfelt sympathies for the family - including Brina. They say the family was a quiet, normal family and the murder and shooting are a surprise. None of them can quite figure out what went wrong, although one mentioned a few incidents of Brina displaying some anti-social behavior although nothing really unusual for a young woman her age. She is also said to be somewhat mentally "slow". Brina plead not guilty to first degree murder and assault. Investigators have said she did make incriminating remarks at her home where the murder took place which led to her arrest. Her case is being bound over to the Hart County grand jury to determine whether there...

Holy shit. This bitch cut a man's head off. The cops found his body in the house and his head in the woods behind the house. They also found Roena Cheryl Mills standing in the middle of the woods, covered in blood, wearing a glove on one hand. WTF.  A Virginia woman has been charged in the death of a West Virginia man who was decapitated, authorities said Monday. Media outlets report 29-year-old Bo White's body was found April 1 in his home in the Lerona area and his head in some woods. Court documents released Monday show 41-year-old Roena Cheryl Mills was charged with second-degree murder. According to a criminal complaint, Mills had been in the woods, was covered in blood and had a pocket knife in her pants when she arrived at another residence. The homeowners called authorities after they offered to give her a ride and she refused to leave the property. The complaint said Mills gave a sheriff's deputy a false identify and claimed she had been thrown through a gl...

What the holy fuck went on in this case? There is so much going on I cant figure it all out!The Stanley woman who admitted to stabbing an Eau Claire man in rural Dunn County has appeared before Judge James Peterson. Ezra J. McCandless, 20, 36794 25th Ave., Stanley, has been charged with first degree intentional homicide in the March 22 death of 24-year-old Alexander L. Woodworth. Formerly known as Monica Karlen, McCandless appeared with her attorney, Aaron Nelson of Hudson, before Dunn County Judge James Peterson on Friday morning. Citing issues with the criminal complaint, Nelson requested the criminal complaint be sealed and a certain paragraph be struck. However, Assistant Attorney General Richard Dufour — who appeared via telephone — noted that since McCandless had signed a waiver of medical records, the information in the complaint should not be removed. In addition to continuing the $250,000 cash bond on which McCandless is being held, Peterson ruled that the complaint ...

I was getting ready to start my writing day one day last week when I saw the mug shot of a very young girl flash onto the television screen. Brina Nie, 21, had been arrested for the Munfordville, KY. shooting death of her father and gun shot injury to her mother. She shot them in the family home. Jeffery Nie, 56, was dead on the scene. Barbra Nie, 58, was injured. Brina was charged with murder and first degree assault.  At 3:14 a.m. last Sunday, state police were called to a shooting at 370 G. Shelton Road. Troopers found Jeffrey and Barbara Nie in an upstairs bedroom. Jeffrey Nie had multiple gunshot wounds, while Barbara Nie had a gunshot injury. Hart County Coroner Reggie Pettitt pronounced Jeffrey Nie dead at the scene. Barbara Nie was taken to the University of Louisville Hospital, where she was in serious but stable condition, according to a release. Brina E. Nie, 21, of  northern Hart County, pleaded not guilty at her arraignment Monday in Hart District C...
