Tyisha Shaunta Wilbourn was 20 when she was shot and killed on the evening of February 1, 2019. A recent Independence High School graduate and a student at Itawamba Community College, she was a new mother to a one-month-old daughter, Onesti’ C. Wright. The shooting occurred after an argument at a gas station on Highway 51 in Como, Mississippi; a bullet struck the vehicle Tyisha occupied and fatally wounded her. A friend and Tyisha’s infant daughter were in the car at the time.

Law enforcement identified 24-year-old Capresha Presley as the primary suspect. Presley was taken into custody and charged with first-degree murder; she was released on a $100,000 bond weeks later. The case was set for a court appearance on May 8, 2019. Tyisha’s family publicly expressed their pain over her death and the bond decision.
