On the evening of January 9, 2019, 22-year-old Shandrell Simoneaux and her 40-year-old mother, Maeisha Simoneaux, were found unresponsive from gunshot wounds inside an apartment at the Misty Hollow complex on Misty Lane in Bossier City, Louisiana. First responders pronounced both women dead at the scene after a neighbor called 911 to report a shooting.
Investigators identified 22-year-old Frederick Dewayne Jackson as the suspect and say evidence showed he shot both women before fleeing in a vehicle. Two young children who belonged to Shandrell and Jackson were in the apartment during the shooting; they were unharmed and placed with family. A manhunt led to Jackson’s capture in nearby Shreveport by a U.S. Marshals Service task force. He was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and booked into the Bossier City jail with bail set at 7.5 million dollars.
