Young, 26, went before a judge Tuesday, where she was denied bond for a second time. Hinds County Court Judge Johnnie McDaniels said Young is a \u201cclear and present danger to the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Investigators detail alleged motive<\/h2>\n

Police say the four suspects charged went to the house to rob the homeowner, who has been identified as the two-year-old\u2019s father, Cadelmon Givens.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

One of the male suspects was childhood friends with Givens, according to police.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, investigators said the initial plan was for the suspects to buy marijuana from Givens.<\/p>\n

While on the witness stand, JPD Detective Terrence Jackson testified the suspects found out Givens recently won a lot of money and sold marijuana.<\/p>\n

As a result, he said the plan then changed to robbing Givens, looking to steal his money and marijuana.<\/p>\n

\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

According to Jackson police, one of the suspects called and told Givens he was outside.<\/p>\n

When Givens came out, Cornelius Carter and Devone Modacure began shooting at him.<\/p>\n

Police say Givens ran and hid behind a neighbor\u2019s house.<\/p>\n

Detective Jackson accuses Cornelius Carter and Modacure of then going inside the home and shooting and killing the three victims, who were each shot multiple times.<\/p>\n

Jackson told the judge that the toddler was shot and killed in the bedroom.<\/p>\n

Keyana was shot in the living room.<\/p>\n

Erica was in the living room and then ran to the bathroom, where she was shot.<\/p>\n

Investigators say Young and Jordan Carter remained in the car, and that Young drove off and left the scene once she heard the gunshots.<\/p>\n

\n

In court, it was revealed the suspects stole roughly two pounds of marijuana, which they split up among themselves.<\/p>\n

According to investigators, Young knew they were going to the house to commit robbery.<\/p>\n

Young denies involvement<\/h2>\n

Young denies killing or robbing anyone. Not long after being denied bond, she spoke to reporters as she walked handcuffed and shackled.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m innocent, I ain\u2019t kill nobody,\u201d Young said. \u201cI ain\u2019t kill nobody. They tried to kill me and my kids, so I stayed there, but I didn\u2019t kill nobody.\u201d<\/p>\n

Young identified who she says are the alleged killers.<\/p>\n

Cornelius Carter and Bunny killed them people, I ain\u2019t kill nobody. Cornelius carter and bunny killed them, that baby and them two females. I ain\u2019t kill nobody,” Young said.<\/p>\n

Young did not clarify who \u201cBunny\u201d is.<\/p>\n

Other suspects, relationship to case<\/h2>\n

In court, it was revealed that Young drove the three other suspects to the home on Queen Alexandria Lane.<\/p>\n

Those suspects are Jordan Carter and Cornelius Carter, who are not related, and Devone Modacure.<\/p>\n

Young and Cornelius Carter were in a relationship, according to police.<\/p>\n

Cornelius Carter and Jordan Carter, both 28, were arrested on capital murder charges and also denied bond.<\/a><\/p>\n

After fleeing the scene, Young allegedly dropped off Jordan Carter near his home.<\/p>\n

She then went to stay the night with Cornelius Carter, her boyfriend.<\/p>\n

During Tuesday\u2019s hearing, Young\u2019s attorney told the judge the 26-year-old thought she was taking the male suspects to the house strictly to buy marijuana, and she did not know anything about the planned robbery.<\/p>\n

The defense also argues Young did not leave the scene sooner because she was being held against her will.<\/p>\n

Weapon investigation<\/h2>\n

The Jackson police chief said she believes the rifle used in the triple homicide was stolen from a Jackson police officer\u2019s vehicle.<\/a><\/p>\n

At this time, none of the suspects charged in the killing are believed to have stolen that weapon.<\/p>\n

Young\u2019s case will now be presented to a Hinds County grand jury, which will determine if there is enough evidence to take her to trial.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
