On the evening of Sunday, May 3, 2020, 32-year-old Alisha Lee was found shot four times in the back of the head in a bed at the home of her boyfriend, in Vaughn, Mississippi. Deputies from the Yazoo County Sheriff’s Department discovered her when they responded to a shooting call at Anthony Simmons’ residence. Lee had been visiting Simmons at the time of the fatal incident.

Neighbors told investigators Simmons had confessed to the shooting and had asked them to kill him. Deputies located Simmons down the road from the house, observed him to be heavily under the influence of an intoxicant, and took him into custody that evening. He was charged with Lee’s murder and placed on suicide watch at the jail. The relationship between Lee, who was originally from Canton, and Simmons was described as unstable and marked by a history of domestic violence.

If anyone knew Alisha, her movements that night, or has information about the relationship, please share what you know.
