Woman Convicted For Role In Killings

A woman has been convicted for helping the man accused of killing two Hattiesburg Police Officers back in 2015.

The trial was moved from Hattiesburg to Oxford.
Jurors deliberated for less than an hour before finding 24 year old Joanie Calloway guilty of attempted accessory after the fact to capital murder and hindering prosecution.
She was the first person to stand trial in the killings of officers Benjamin Deen and Liquori Tate.
Calloway was sentenced to the maximum of 20 years for the accessory charge and five years for hindering prosecution.
She was charged with helping accused killer Marvin Banks flee and misleading police about banks’ identity.
Banks died of heart disease in 2015 while jailed.
In total six people were charged.
