Betty Jean Woods, a 51-year-old convenience store clerk in Jacksonville, Florida, was shot in the head on September 16, 1990, and died four days later. The shooting happened at the store where she worked; there were no eyewitnesses to the shooting itself. A customer who arrived shortly after the incident saw a man hurrying out carrying a paper bag and later identified that man as Anthony Mungin.

Anthony Mungin was arrested two days after the shooting in Kingsland, Georgia. Police recovered a .25-caliber semiautomatic pistol, bullets, and Mungin’s Georgia identification card during a search of his residence. Ballistics testing matched the bullet recovered from Woods to the pistol seized at Mungin’s home. Mungin was charged with first-degree murder, tried beginning January 25, 1993, convicted on January 28, 1993, and the jury recommended death by a 7-5 vote. On February 23, 1993, Judge John D. Southwood sentenced Mungin to death.

Mungin admitted to two armed robberies committed on September 14, 1990, for which he was convicted and sentenced, but has maintained his innocence of Woods’s murder.

If anyone knew Betty Jean Woods, saw the man leaving the store that day, or has information about the paper bag or the person known as Ice, please share what is known.
