Charges
On May 9, 2016 Carr was charged with Criminally Negligent Homicide in the death of Amy Inita Joyner. She faces up to 8 years in prison if she is found guilty. Prosecutors will seek to have Carr tried as an adult in Superior Court due to the severity of the crime.
Chakeira Wright and Zion Snow were charged with third-degree criminal conspiracy in connection with the incident in the Howard High bathroom.
Death of Amy Inita Joyner-Francis
On April 21, 2016 Amy Inita Joyner died from being assaulted in a girl's bathroom at Howard High School of Technology. Amy's head was hit on the sink. Video obtained by investigators shows Carr hitting Joyner-Francis in the head and torso with a closed fist.
Amy Joyner-Francis died as a result of a heart defect, but prosecutors say she would not have gone into cardiac arrest if she had not been assaulted.
Carr is likely to be tried as an adult in the case as the charges progress to a possible trial against her in May 2016.
Chakeira Wright, Zion Snow, and Carr all planned the attack 20 hours before through written and oral communications.
