Jayla King, 21, was shot and killed in Jonesboro, Georgia, on May 16, 2020, after a dispute over money. Earlier that day, Zion Humphreys posted a threatening message on Instagram directed at King about the financial disagreement. King later drove Humphreys to an apartment complex in Jonesboro; while inside her vehicle, Humphreys shot her four times in the chest and torso, the fatal wounds perforating her heart.

Clayton County police reviewed surveillance video that placed Humphreys near the scene shortly after the shooting. The case went to trial on October 30, 2023; on November 3, 2023, a Clayton County jury found Zion Humphreys guilty of Malice Murder, Felony Murder, and Aggravated Assault for King’s death. Sentencing was scheduled for November 7, 2023.
