Snapped Malaika Griffin and Jason Patrick Horsley

Status: Incarcerated

In season 6, episode 12 the murder of her neighbor, Jason Patrick Horsley by Malaika Griffin is shown. This murder occurred in the state of Colorado. Oxygen describes this episode of Snapped as Malaika Griffin, a biochemist, shoots her neighbor in May 1999 then eludes authorities for more than six years

Griffin lived next door to a carpenter. Each day after work, in front of Griffin's house, the carpenter unloaded, organized, and then reloaded tools into his truck. In May 1999, Griffin confronted the carpenter about this routine. After a heated argument, Griffin entered her house, returned with a gun, and shot the carpenter in the back, killing him.

Griffin fled to the home of an acquaintance. There, she stole a car at gunpoint and drove away.

Years later, Griffin was arrested in California. She was brought to Colorado and charged with first degree murder, aggravated robbery, and aggravated motor vehicle theft.

At trial, Griffin offered testimony that, if believed, would have allowed the jury to acquit her of murder on a theory of self-defense or to convict her of a lesser homicide. She testified that, just before the shooting, the carpenter had said, “I'm getting tired of you, bitch. I'm going to resolve this,” as he reached into his truck. She also testified that she had not intended to shoot the carpenter but had fired the gun accidentally when startled by barking dogs. She did not contest the other charges.

Malaika Griffin is Sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
