Three Charged In Livestreamed Murder Of Young Mother

Asia Alyce Poole’s fatal shooting was livestreamed on Facebook.

Three people have finally been charged in relation to the killing of Asia Alyce Poole, who was fatally shot at a Birmingham, Alabama, apartment complex. The incident was streamed live on Facebook.

Justin Jamond Hendrix, 20, and Taylor McCloud, 22 have been charged with murder in the killing of the 21-year-old woman. Both have also been charged with the attempted murder of Poole’s best friend after he survived the shooting.

Both McCloud and Hendrix are being held without bond at the Jefferson County Jail.

The incident began when 19-year-old Janiyah Hendrix — Justin’s sister — fought with Poole just before the shooting had begun. Although she fled the scene, she’s been charged with first-degree auto theft. Janiyah was booked into county jail under a $30,000 bond.

According to sources close to Poole, she and Janiyah were involved in an ongoing dispute over an unnamed man. That tension escalated in the parking lot of the Birmingham apartment complex of Monarch Ridge, where the shooting took place.
