Lash Deposit Turned Tragedy | Mobile News

A 29-year-old woman in Mobile, Alabama, faces capital murder charges after allegedly shooting a 23-year-old pregnant woman during a heated confrontation over a $15 lash appointment deposit that never materialized. The incident, which unfolded outside Hickman’s home on July 10, ended in tragedy as Hickman, holding a broom, was shot once in the chest after reportedly asking if her attacker was really going to kill her. Witnesses say Davis threw a block of wood at Hickman’s car before pulling out a gun. Hickman’s mother condemned the act, calling no amount of money worth taking two lives — Hickman’s and her unborn child’s. The defense claims mutual aggression, but the judge sent the case to a grand jury. Davis remains jailed without bond as prosecutors weigh whether to seek the death penalty. The story leaves a grieving family shattered, with Hickman’s three-year-old son now asking for his mom — a haunting reminder of how quickly life can be lost over a minor dispute.
