By Eileen Reslen. The fashionable ensemble is more reminiscent of what fans typically see Jayne wear on the Bravo reality series, but a departure from the low-key looks that paparazzi have spotted her in recently as she laid low in the wake of multiple lawsuits involving embezzlement allegations. Jayne wore a green sweatshirt with a picture of a deer, matching green sweatpants and a Chanel purse to travel to Vegas.
It is unclear whether this was a paid appearance for Jayne, but celebrities are often invited to grand openings for a fee to help promote it. She has been accused of spending the millions — allegedly given to her company, EJ Global LLC, from Girardi Keese — on her American Express bill, assistants and a glam squad, among other expenses. He is being accused of stealing settlement funds from the victims of Lion Air Flight in and others.
In November , Jayne filed for divorce from Girardi. Life is tough for everyone at some point. On July 17, , the order was lifted after Erica Shifflett requested for it to be dismissed. Love you baby and hope you have a wonderful day. They had posted photos together in November , a few months after the restraining order was lifted. Russell and Erica Shifflett. Russell Shifflett has often posted about guns on his Facebook page, and Erica Shifflett liked several of his posts.
He also posted photos of hunting trips with his son. Protect your 2nd Amendment right. Misty Gray Daniel Green's sister : I think when Erika found out that the girl was hanging out with her son and that kind of made her snap.
Yet, when it's his turn, defense attorney Dan Chambers shifts the spotlight away from Erika to Daniel Green himself, and, in essence, puts the dead police officer on trial for the way he treated his ex-wife. Chambers says Daniel Green would obsessively record their verbal battles, like a recording when the couple is fighting over Aiden who was a baby at that point:. You're gonna fing regret this. OK, alright.
You're going to jail you [expletive]. But only one person can really talk about what happened the day Daniel was murdered, and so Chambers takes an extraordinary and risky step and puts Erika on the stand. Dan Chambers Defense attorney : It was a collective decision-- and it wasn't an easy decision. In direct testimony, Erika begins with a litany of stories about the abuse she claims she suffered from Daniel over the years:. There was a witness to that incident, but Erika did not call police then and says she rarely reported abuse because Daniel was a cop.
DA Tim Ward : … it appears now the that objective of some of this is to murder his memory. And as horrible as the relationship was, Erika admits that she and Daniel continued to have sex. Again, she blames Daniel:. She testifies the two even had phone sex on February 5, Just one day later, she tells jurors, she showed up at Daniel's house to just snoop around:. So, I took off the screen and I wedged it and it was open.
Moving through the house, Erika says she grabbed two of Daniel's guns. Erika spotted Daniel's open safe and found what she says were two photos depicting child pornography:. She looked to be maybe, like, 12, 13, next to a bed.
Her story takes the prosecution by surprise; Erika had never mentioned the photos in any of her previous statements. DA Tim Ward : That was the very first time that we ever had even heard that or anything close to that. That's when Erika says she ducked into Aiden's closet — where she had her ex-husband's two loaded guns. One month into her trial, Erika Sandoval explains for the first time publicly how and why she killed her ex-husband Daniel Green. She tells jurors she was obsessed with fears that Daniel may have been abusing their son.
Erika explains how she hurried into her son's bedroom closet when Daniel came home that afternoon. I didn't know where he was going. I stood right there in front of Daniel when he was on the toilet. It's such a shocking admission that her attorney Dan Chambers tries his best to take some of the edge off:. Of course, I regret it. Every day. I regret it every day. Erika sticks to her story even when cross-examined by Assistant District Attorney David Alavezos, who clearly doubts her claim about finding photos of child porn:.
Daniel always told me how they always had each other's backs. Matt Green: She's gonna come up with whatever narrative she thinks will work in getting her off. The question hangs over the trial: did those child porn photos actually exist or is Erika lying to make her actions more understandable to the jury? Alavezos has an answer.
But Chambers counters that Daniel had hundreds of pornographic videos and photos of adults on his phone and computers. Chambers also says there were thousands of unknown images that were somehow deleted from Daniel's cell phone in the years before he was killed.
What were they? Why would someone need to delete that many photographs or images? But the more important images, according to the prosecutor, are the ones Erika would rather forget — he forces her to look at photos of Daniel after she shot him:. After nearly two months, the attorneys make their final arguments. Alavezos tells the jury that Erika was the real abuser and plays more audio and, sometimes, video recordings that Daniel made:. What part of that is too difficult for you to understand? And in his closing, Dan Chambers puts the blame on both Erika and Daniel — tied together, he says, by a "traumatic bond" that is difficult to understand.
Erin Moriarty: Do you either one of you worry … that there might be one juror —. Jurors deliberate for nearly four days before telling Judge Joseph Kalashian they can deliberate no more. A mistrial — the jury deadlocked at with one single juror refusing to convict Erika of murder in the first degree. Three jurors agreed to discuss that holdout juror. Bill Walker Juror : it became evident day after day, hour after hour that she wasn't going to waiver and the reality of a hung jury started to sink in.
John Whetstone Juror : he never gave much reasoning behind why she felt the way she did. John Whetstone : Tensions started getting high and they started yelling at each other. They were getting emotionally involved. Jeremy Yarbro : You could tell that she obviously lied on the stand … I think a lot of the trial was spent by the defense not defending her but rather attacking Daniel.
Bill Walker : I think every juror had empathy for her, but they also had empathy for him. We saw just how vindictive or forceful she was toward him. Why is she still staying there? Why is he still staying there? Dan Chambers : In the defense world, a hung jury is always considered a win because it means you live to fight again another day. But Chambers says Erika is adjusting to the reality that she'll need to sit through another murder trial. Dan Chambers : Right now she's gotta process a lot of emotions … she's kind of a whipsaw of emotions.
She was working on opening her second daycare facility there. All she needed now was the building. In the meanwhile, she ran the daycare out of her home. The COVID pandemic forced Ericka to shut down her original daycare in Columbus, but friends say she was relieved to focus on this new chapter in her life.
Christian explained to Dateline that Ericka was excited that she had finally paid off credit card debt, her home was almost paid for and she had recently picked out a building for her daycare. Ericka was also known to be very involved in her community in Akron. She even helped found an organization called Young Black Professionals Coalition, which provides scholarships to high school students as well as mentorship programs for young adults.
Ericka was known by her family and friends to be caring and dependable. So when no one could get in touch with her on November 2, , the day she was supposed to babysit for a friend, her loved ones began to worry. When they arrived, the back door was open. They walked inside and discovered a gruesome scene. Ericka was dead of an apparent gunshot wound, the Akron Police would later announce. It was clear to her loved ones, Ericka had been murdered. Darrell told Dateline that Ericka received a phone call and she told him she was leaving to meet a friend.
He said he thinks back on that night and wonders if things would have been different had he asked more questions. But I do blame myself. When Shermaine learned of this message, she thought it was odd that her sister never told her about this unusual encounter. The text message began to raise more questions for the Weems family, who told Dateline the information was provided to police for the investigation.
Shermaine told Dateline she is frustrated and confused by what she says has been a lack of communication between law enforcement and the family throughout this investigation. That is just too much for me.
