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 Youngs 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 Britts 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 drivers license, where the picture was similar enough that she could travel on the other womans 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.

Guilty! Electric chair!
LOL
She’s as sweet as Tupelo honey.
Now SHE scares me.
Looks like one of the Irish Westies from the 1970s :)
Was it a lover’s triangle[either sex] that went south?
The only way Laz would hit that is with a two by four.
Until I hear different, I will say it was a love triangle [ with members of either sex] she was involved in that went south.
Does anyone else think she looks like Rosie ODonnell?
Yep! Just a happier version.
Guilty or not, SHE DONE IT!!!
Wait, isn’t that Dog the Bounty Hunter?

Level Five : "Someday I'm gonna marry that girl!"
“..some public male figure... Can’t quite figure out who it is.”
The theme song from the old Alfred Hitchcock show immediately started playing in my head.
It surprises me that she could walk a mile, then kill someone, then walk a mile back to the stolen car!
Gacey with long hair?
I know her! She’s Mama from the movie “Throw mama from the train.”
I googled pics and don’t think any of those are the one I’m thinking of, although now I’m thinking actor rather than politician.
I think it’s the eyes/brows and the set of the mouth (and about the right hair color). If I think of who it is, I’ll post a pic.
Maybe that comedian that screamed all the time? Sam Kinison
Rode hard and put away wet!
Nahhh, too happy.
