Tequila Sugar Momma Larkins, 29, was the owner of Sparkle City laundromat in Perrine, Florida. On the evening of March 11, 1989, she locked the front door around 9 p.m. while some customers remained inside. A man knocked asking for change; Larkins unlocked the door to help him and let him enter. The visitor, later identified as Ronnie Johnson, argued with Larkins, struck her in the face, and after she fell produced a gun and shot her, killing her.

Witnesses at the scene, including Jerry Briggs and his wife, identified Johnson in a photographic lineup and again at trial. Johnson was arrested April 1, 1989, confessed to the crime, and was tried on charges of first-degree murder and armed burglary. His defense sought to suppress the confession, but it was admitted. A jury convicted him of both charges and sentenced him to death, a decision later upheld on appeal.

Who in Perrine remembers Tequila Larkins or has information about that night that hasn’t been shared with authorities?
