Randy Lewis Case
“On the evening of March 27, 2006, around 5:00 p.m., Taurus Frost and his girlfriend Vontricesa Davis went to Chantacleer Day Care and picked up two toddlers. Vontricesa was driving her Chevy Impala, Taurus was sitting in the car’s front passenger seat. After the toddlers were picked up, they were seated in the back seat. One child was two year old Timothy Barnette, who was Vontricesa’s son. The other child was three year old Corlaeja Davis, who was the daughter of Corliss Davis, Vontricesa’s sister.
Next, they went to Piggly Wiggly in north Birmingham to pay Vontricesa’s mom’s phone bill. Afterwards, they went to L & N City, which is in the Birmingham Division of Jefferson County, so Taurus could talk to the defendant, Randy Lewis. As they drove up the street, Randy Lewis was walking towards their car. Vontricesa stopped the car. Randy Lewis walked up to it, opened the back door of the passenger side, placed a gun to the back of Taurus’ head, and shot Taurus point blank, killing him instantly. Taurus fell to his left onto the middle of the console and blood was everywhere. Vontricesa was hollering and the toddlers were crying and screaming.
The defendant then got out of the car, and made Vontricesa get into the backseat of another four door car with two other guys in it. Vontricesa was seated in the back seat behind the driver. The defendant then got back into Vontricesa’s Chevy Impala, but this time he was seated on the driver’s side. Vontricesa tried to get out of the car she was in, but the defendant pulled up and said ‘You better not get out.’ Then the front seat passenger side occupant of the car she was in threatened her, by saying, ‘if my face come up in something, I’m gonna do something to you.’ He got into the back seat with her holding a gun as the driver drove them down the street. She then jumped out of the car, near a busy intersection.
The defendant who was driving behind the car she jumped out of, deliberately swerved towards her, ran over her, and then drove off at a high rate of speed, running a red light while doing so. Ms. Davis’ car was found the next day behind an abandoned house with the body of Taurus Frost still in the front seat slumped over the console. His pockets appeared to be pulled out a little bit. The two toddlers were found alive in the backseat with the victim’s blood on them. It is noted that the car was locked with the windows rolled up at the time it initially was discovered by the police. The toddlers were removed from the car, cleaned up a bit, given some food and water and then taken to safety by several Birmingham Police officers.
Ms. Davis testified at trial, that after being run over she remembers blanking out. She further testified that she was in the hospital for about a month, which included being in ICU for over a week. She received multiple injuries which included bruises and a damaged lung. She also underwent several surgeries. While in the hospital, Detective Armstrong showed Ms. Davis a photographic line-up, consisting of 3 six packs. In the first set of six packs, Vontricesa identified Randy Lewis and said, ‘He is the one who shot Taurus Frost.’ Randy Lewis was arrested three days after Ms. Davis identified him.
