A young Alabama woman who went missing over the weekend—and reportedly sent her family a message that she was being held hostage—was found shot dead on a roadside early Monday.
Birmingham Police say a passerby spotted the body of Mahogany Jaquise Jackson, 20, and called 911. Jackson’s mother, Gail Maddox, then posted on Facebook: “They killed my child.”
“Our family is devastated with the turn of the last 24 hours. I’m asking that you give my sister... some time to process losing her daughter. This a lot to handle and we are just trying to figure everything out,” Maddox’s sister, Loretta King Hicks, posted.
