Woman charged with capital murder, held on $5 million bond ^ | 2/13/2020 | William Moore

TUPELO • A Belmont woman is being held in the Lee County Jail on a $5 million bond, accused of stalking, kidnapping and killing a Baldwyn woman Tuesday.

The Baldwyn Police Department formally charged Shawnie Vel Young, 47, of 1 Witt Road, Belmont, with capital murder on Thursday. More details surrounding the death of Pamela Jean Britt, 63, came out during Young’s initial court appearance before Lee County Justice Court Judge Chuck Hopkins.

Baldwyn police investigator Shane Young, no relation, said the suspect left a residence in Corinth Tuesday morning, Feb. 11, in a borrowed car and drove to Baldwyn with the intent of killing Britt.

“She parked the car at the Fish Lake Store at the intersection of highways 366 and 370 and walked (more than a mile) to the house of Pam Britt,” investigator Young said. “She seized the victim in her garage and killed her. She was seen exiting the garage by Britt’s employer. She then tried to work her way back to Fish Lake Road where the car was.”

The investigator told the judge that when Young was captured, she had bus tickets to Indiana dated Feb. 12 in her possession. He said the suspect also had a stolen driver’s license, where the picture was similar enough that she could travel on the other woman’s identity.(snip)

The chief said it appears Young had been planning the crime for a month or more. The victim complained to police in January that Young had placed a tracking device on her car in Nettleton.

She'll do just fine in prison. A natural.

A lot of ugly and stupid, too! Maybe she thought Indiana was a foreign country without an extradition treaty.

The story is not clear regarding a motive.
Did Young kill Britt because they looked similar
and she wanted to steal the victims identity?

While a motive for the killing has not been determined, Agnew said it appears to have been over a man.

Perhaps, but as per The 2008 FreeRepublic Lexicon (Lingo, Dictionary, Lore Handbook)... I've got to stick with guiTLy. :) I'll leave it up to a jury of her ah... erm... peers (?) to decide the rest.

But red-flag laws would have helped. /s
Cops exist to document crimes only.

Yeah, she puts me in mind of some public male figure, maybe a politician. Can’t quite figure out who it is.
