A judge today ordered the arrest of Rozina Sayles, 44, of Oklahoma City on complaints of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit robbery and robbery with a firearm. She has not been formally charged.
She was arrested this afternoon by Oklahoma County sheriff deputies without incident.She was identified as the girlfriend of Anthony D. Morrison, one of two men accused of recruiting two teenagers to rob the Reliable Discount Pharmacy May 19.
Killed was Antwun "Speedy" Parker, 16, of Oklahoma City.
Prosecutors allege Ersland went too far, shooting Parker five more times after knocking Parker unconscious with a shot to the head. Ersland contends he acted in self-defense because Parker was getting back up. Prosecutors say Parker was unarmed. Ersland insisted Parker had a gun. Prosecutors have both been praised and sharply criticized for the decision to charge the pharmacist.
In a separate case, prosecutors also have charged Morrison, 43, Emanuel D. Mitchell, 31, and Jevontia Ingram, 15, with first-degree murder. All three are from Oklahoma City. Oklahoma law allows conspirators to be charged with murder if an accomplice dies during a robbery. Both men are convicted robbers who have spent years in prison.
