A Florida woman faces a lengthy prison term following her conviction for manslaughter in the shooting death of her ex-boyfriend, whom she accused of being abusive.

Jasmoray Baugh, 31, could receive a sentence of up to 30 years in prison after her conviction last week for the fatal shooting of Korey Woulard, as stated by the 7th Judicial District State Attorney’s Office. The jury decided against a second-degree murder conviction, opting instead for the lesser charge of manslaughter after a week of trial proceedings.

The incident occurred around 2 a.m. on December 11, 2022. A probable cause arrest affidavit reveals that Baugh shot Woulard after he vandalized her car, something he had reportedly done before. She proceeded to send him a menacing text message.

“I told the police you robbed me and shot at me and I sent them to little and yo gma house p— cause bout my car b— you going under the ground,” she texted.

After Woulard tore off her side-view mirrors, he started to walk away. Baugh got into her vehicle, pursued him, and then shot him once in the chest, resulting in his death.

Baugh testified on her own behalf at trial, claiming that she killed him in self-defense, according to a courtroom report from the Daytona Beach News-Journal. She said she was driving by him when he threw a bicycle at her windshield, causing her to crash into a pole. She told the jury Woulard ran up to the car with a gun, which set off a fight for survival.

“We … tussling, it’s like a tug-of-war,” she reportedly testified. “I’m fighting him not to shoot me. And that’s when the gun go off.”

She said she then threw the gun into some nearby bushes.

But the state rejected that claim, saying she hunted her former boyfriend down because she was mad he vandalized her car again.

“The law doesn’t give anyone the right to be the judge, jury and executioner,” assistant state attorney Nick Kramperth said, per the News-Journal.

Jurors deliberated about six hours before deciding the case.

“The defendant killed the victim for vandalizing her car,” State Attorney R.J. Larizza said. “Her retaliation could cost her 30 years in prison. A sad testament to the human condition.”

Sentencing is slated for Nov. 5.
