On the evening of Sunday, September 6, 2020, two women were found shot to death inside a home on Pershing Avenue in Indianola, Mississippi. The victims were 58-year-old Doris Ann Floyd and her 44-year-old daughter, Latonya Rochelle Hodges. Investigators determined both deaths were homicides by gunfire.

Attention quickly focused on Latonya Hodges’ boyfriend, Randolyn Faint. Reports say he confessed to family members, fled the scene in Doris Floyd’s vehicle, then later turned himself in to the Sunflower County Sheriff’s Department and surrendered a firearm. Ballistic testing reportedly matched that gun to the fatal shots.

In February 2023 Faint, then 35, pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree murder and received a 40-year sentence in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections, with a minimum of 30 years before eligibility for post-release supervision and no parole or early release.

If anyone knew Doris Floyd or has information about the events that night, please share what you remember.
