Crime

On October 22, 1998, Ella Mae Spears was scheduled to travel from Liberty to Fayette, Mississippi, to babysit the children of her niece, Guy Alice Spears Green.   When Ms. Spears failed to arrive in Fayette as scheduled, Green contacted Spears's son, Albert McKnight, who, in turn, contacted Amite County Sheriff Gene McClendon.   McKnight and McClendon then went to Spears's residence in Liberty. When they arrived at approximately 2 p.m., the back door of the house leading to the garage was closed but unlocked, and Spears could not be found.   Her purse was on a table inside the house, and her car was in the carport.   McClendon discovered dark stains on the floor of the carport which appeared to be a blood trail leading to the rear of Spears's car.   When he could not locate the car keys, McClendon contacted the dealership from which the car was purchased and obtained a duplicate key, which was used to open the trunk.   Inside was the deceased body of Spears, covered with a quilt.   Autopsy results indicated that Spears's death was consistent with manual strangulation.

His victim was Ella Mae Spears
