Joshua Wayne Floyd was 27 when he was shot and killed in the early morning hours of November 8, 2019, at the East Central Village Apartments in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The disagreement escalated, Floyd broke a coffee table and left the apartment; Barrett locked the door behind him. When Floyd attempted to re-enter by kicking the back door, Barrett retrieved a handgun from her purse and fired one shot through the door, striking Floyd. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Officers who responded found no visible injuries on Barrett to support a claim of physical assault. She was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. In a jailhouse interview she said she never intended to kill Floyd and apologized to his family. While out on bond, Barrett faced additional charges in 2021 and 2022, including burglary, allegedly damaging a vehicle in Catoosa, curfew violations that resulted in being jailed without bond, and an October 2022 arrest for possession of a stolen Jeep.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember hearing the disturbance that night or seeing what happened at the complex?
