A Birmingham woman has been charged in last week’s slaying of a man during a domestic dispute.
Jasmine Mari Drake, 29, is charged with capital murder in the April 1 shooting death of 44-year-old Louis Bryant. Jail records indicate the charge against Drake is a capital crime because there were children present during the killing.
Officers responded at 4:30 a.m. that Thursday to a report of a person shot at 1516 Vanderbilt Road. When they arrived on the scene, they found Bryant unresponsive. Birmingham Fire and Rescue Service attempted life-saving measures, said Sgt Rod Mauldin, but Bryant was pronounced dead on the scene.
