Janiecia Briggs Shot a Woman After a Bar Fight

Janiecia when first arrested
I received a letter from Ms. Janiecia Briggs in September. I am not familiar with her and didn't reach out to her, so I was curious. Noticing her return address was from Homestead Correctional Institute, I did assume she got my info from Morgan Smith, "The Sex Slave Murderess". Not sure though.

Janiecia was 23 in March 2015 when she went out for the night with some friends, including Curtia Reed, to the Elks Pride of St. Lucie No. 1189 in the 2400 block of Avenue M in Fort Pierce, Florida. An argument between a group of girls and the crew Janiecia and Curtia were with broke out, and they were all thrown out of the bar.

According to the two news reports I could scavenge up, Janiecia and Curtia pull up in front of the car full of the other girls and opened fire. Tonya Oliver was sitting in the passenger seat. She was shot in the head and although she survived, she was never the same and eventually died years later.

Bobby McMillan, who was in the car with Janiecia and Curtia Reed and was dating Reed, testified that Reed stopped her car in front of the parked car in which Oliver was in the front passenger seat. He said Reed and Briggs began firing through the side windows of Reed's car into the windshield of the other car.

They were arrested 3 days later. Janiecia received 45 years in prison. Mrs. Oliver died while she was serving her time or she would have been charged with life.

Her letter was very sad. She does have remorse but she has a very different story than what I could find online. I wrote her back and asked her a few questions that I hope she answers.

Make sure to watch the video to see how she explains her crimes.

  2. I knew Ms. Briggs. She was a very cool chick! We were work friends. She was always so very kind to me. I was completely thrown off When all this happened. I remember this very vividly. When she was 1st accused I reached out to her on Facebook. She told me that day that what happened was portrayed very differently by the news. Obviously none of us were there that night we could not say for sure what went down. And somebody did lose their life. But what I can't say is, Janiecia Was always a hard working mother, girlfriend, and friend. She was one of those people that if you Showed up to work in a bad mood she would try to cheer you up. And loves her kids more than anything in the world. She talked about them everyday. I hadn't known her for very long like I said we were only work friends. But I knew her long enough to get a sense of her personality and what happened the night that caused her that caused her long incarceration,was, in my opinion 100% out of character. I look miss Briggs up every couple years to see how she's doing. And found this article uponMy search this time. So I figured I'd give you my 2 cents. What happened that night was a tragedy for both the girl that wasShot. And for miss Briggs and her entire family. The sad fact is there was kids affected on each side of this. And no matter how you feel about the crime committed, You have to at least hold sympathy in the fact that 2 sets of children have lost them mother.

Darlie Routier Texas

I was contacted by a penpal of Darlie Routier's who gave me some of the most recent advances in her case to share with you all. I began writing to Darlie in December of 2005 and she is one woman whom I will never understand how she got behind bars. Really. You know what else? With all the information ALREADY out there about this case, in addition to the newly discovered info, I think if you can't see this poor woman's innocence, you may just be an asshole. So many legal flubs, so much question and police innuendo that turned out to be nothing. So many fingers pointed and road blocks thrown up, I am surprised this case isn't used in other countries to point to the clusterfuck we call a justice system.  I believe Darlie could have been released ages ago if the state had done the necessary DNA testing. Sadly, Texas has tried to stop it in every unconstitutional way they could pull out of a bull's ass. BUT- there is hope on the horizon. This from Camp Darlie ...

The Most Beautiful Girls to Ever Kill Their Own Mother

As human beings, we have trouble fathoming the idea of a young girl committing so atrocious a crime as murder. Much less, the murder of her own mother. The concept becomes even more inconceivable when it pertains to a beautiful young woman beautiful young woman with a loving family and the world at her fingertips. These girls aren't all women in prison now. Some have been released and disappeared into the mainstream. Scary, huh?  Nakisha Waddell     At age 14, Nakisha Waddell stabbed her mother, Vaughne Thomas, 43 times in their Virginia home. In court, she said she was tired of the years of fighting and just exploded. Her 15-year-old friend, Annie Belcher, helped her dig a grave in the backyard. The pair poured alcohol and nail polish remover on the dead woman and tried to ignite her to no avail.  They eventually mixed a crude concrete mixture and poured it on top of her and finished by covering her with sticks, leaves, and yard debris. She gives n...

Brenda Andrew Execution date

     Brenda Andrew is the only woman on Oklahoma death row. She is there for the murder of her husband by her and her boyfriend James Pavatt.      Brenda does not answer letters. It seems she may still have a bit of that pretentious attitude left over from her days as a respected deacons wife. Those days are over, hun.      There is no scheduled execution date for Brenda yet. Oklahoma lists its dates of execution for the prison she is in here .      Every time I read about this case I am utterly amazed at how stupid these two people were. She may as well have advertised their guilt on a billboard in front of the house. Both Andrew's and Pavatt's appeal were systematically denied without comment in 2008. The little Scorned episode "The Sunday School Killers" at the top of this post is about Brenda and James and its only $1.99 so its worth the money.
