BRAXTON, Miss. (WLBT) - The dispatcher’s voice was raspy as she paged out first responders to the scene where Ashlei McFarland was already cold to the touch.
“Central dispatch to Cato personnel, be en route 135 Conerly Road, 135 Conerly Road, for a possible deceased at this address…”
Dontrell Hunter, 27, and Ashley Basham, 46, were arrested in Lawrence County Tuesday night and charged in McFarland’s death. But even now, the connection between suspects and victim is not clear.
