Four adult entertainers stripped a man of his life after he helped them change a flat tire, police said.
Brittany Curry, 28, Ponesha Taylor, 23, Johniesha Simmons, 19, and Lauteshia Dotson, 23, from Memphis and Nashville, have all been charged with first degree murder, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon in connection with Ralph Cross’s Aug. 1 death at his home in Missouri, Fox 13 reports.
Cross, 55, reportedly bought a new tire for the women, and allowed them to stay in his home while he worked on their vehicle.
The women reportedly stayed at his house until Cross’ body was discovered there Tuesday morning.
The women may have used a 9mm handgun to kill Cross, investigators say.
Acting Mississippi County Sheriff Branden Caid said Curry pulled the trigger on Cross, CBS-affiliate KFVS 12 reported.
He died of a gunshot wound to the back.
Cross was last seen in his house around 6:30 a.m. on Aug. 1 — the day he died.
A witness said he saw Cross arguing with three of the women, while the fourth woman remained in a white car parked outside his house.
The witness said that as he walked toward his home, he heard a noise and saw the three women leave Cross’ home and enter the white car.
The witness said he heard one of the women who was in that car say that Cross was “tripping and do not go back down there,” KFVS 12 reported.
Caid said the women killed Cross after robbing him.
Investigators said couch cushions were ruffled and that pockets of pants belonging to Cross had been turned out. Other evidence pointed to a robbery, too.
The women turned themselves in to the Mississippi County Sheriff’s Office on Aug. 3, after friends and family who had seen their pictures from surveillance footage on the news persuaded them to tell their side of the story.
None of the women has admitted to the murder, or identified what role they played in it.
Curry, Taylor, Simmons and Dotson are all being held in separate facilities without bond.
Agreed. Someone tried to do them a favor and they punished him for it. Robbery is recoverable, but murder is forever.
Okay. This morning at 7:30am I was played by two black dudes on bicycles who wouldn’t move over and ride in the street insisted on staying on the sidewalk where I was walking my dog. They approached from the opposite direction then trapped me and the dog between them and closed in and the dog freaked and I tripped over him and lost the leash and he got away from me. I could have killed these motherf’n bass turds. Tampa, Florida. Stay away from. It’s a rotten stinkin’ sanctuary city. Spend your vacation money ELSEWHERE if you value your life.
PLEEEEASE tell me it wasn’t a White man who showed any sympathy whatsoever to these Dindu savages.
Why do you have to say you aren't a racist? EVERY White person should avoid personal encounters with Black people where their safety cannot be 100% guaranteed or when not in the company of friends or family. It is utter lunacy to deny the staggering STATISTICS of Black crime in America, and many other places on Earth.
yikes
I’ve never been inside such a club though I had a boss trying to get me to go.
I’ve heard rumors a good number of them are drug-addled as well.
Nor surprising I suppose.
Hey, my name ends with an a. So do a lot of normal female names, Lisa, Linda, Theresa, Sandra, Patricia. Doesn’t have anything to do with race.

They were entrepreneurs!
Graduates of the Velvet Jones School of Technology.
[ Tampa, Florida. ]
Stayed at the Tampa Marriott (pool out front by street) in 1994.
Went out to find food one Saturday evening or Sunday while we were working up some stuff for the convention.
Boy was I surprised - seemed like every 3rd place was a strip club. Finally, I found an open McDonald’s.
The black beans and rice appetizer was terrific.
At some point, we went to Ybor City(?) for some Cuban food - looked like a place I didn’t want to hang out alone. There was 30-40 of us.
Maybe they were followers of Daddy Rich.....
Yes, top left sure seems to have the ‘tude.
Bottom right is just plain angry.
But as accessories (at a minimum), the other 2........
Cross was thinking up some four-girl fantasies. They probably had no money for a tire so he bought one for them and had them taken to his house where he can watch his fantasy enacted.
When the women were told, they probably told him to shove it and then the argument ensued. Now, he demanded to be paid for the tire if he wasn't going to get his free performance. At least one of them paid him with a bullet to the back.
Not hard to imagine the scenario at all, sadly.
That is so sad, but not surprising; I understand there is little demand for black porn as well.
Yep, they all be hos.
How would Tommy Sotomayor rate these... females... on the BT scale ?
I haint %$#^^&* gonna name my babies no White names!
This story makes me sick. Humans supposedly “evolved” from apes? Incidents like this make a good argument that some humans have devolved to apes.
Exactly
