Jeffrey Pugh Jr., 30, of Lake Worth Beach, Florida, was found dead on May 4, 2021, during a welfare check by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. His body was in an advanced state of decomposition and he had suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the neck, indicating he had likely been dead for several days before discovery.

Investigators quickly focused on his girlfriend, 29-year-old Jasmine Phillips Bent, as the primary suspect. Authorities allege Bent shot Pugh at their home on South M Street, then removed evidence from the scene, including shell casings and Pugh’s cellphone, locked the residence and left in his car. Pugh’s vehicle was later located abandoned near an apartment complex in Savannah, Georgia. Bent was later arrested in Green Township, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, and reportedly confessed to shooting Pugh after saying he assaulted and beat her; she was charged with second-degree murder with a firearm.

Does anyone have information about Pugh’s last days or about the home on South M Street?
