Moss Point man to serve 18 years after domestic violence conviction

A Moss Point man will 18 years in prison after being convicted of aggravated domenstic violence.

Judge Kathy King Jackson sentenced 34-year-old Shamon Perryman this week to 20 years with 18 to serve and two years of probation.

Perryman was convicted of a December 12, 2018 incident in Moss Point. District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath said the victim suffered hours of physical and emotional abuse.

Perryman was convicted of putting cigarettes out on the victim’s body, pouring bleach and toilet water in her hair, dragging her, terrorizing her with guns and threw bottles of beer at her before shooting her in the head.

The victim appeared in the courtroom with bullet fragments still in her brain, McIlrath said.

“Please, if you are a victim of domestic violence, know that you are not trapped in the abuse,” McIlrath said. “There is help and hope at the Gulf Coast Center for Non-Violence.”
