DALTON, Ga. — Sitting in the Whitfield County Jail on a murder charge last year, Skyy Raven Marie Mims chatted with a friend in a video conference.
“I found the picture of somebody,” Arian Lane told her.
“Let me see,” Mims said.
Lane pressed his cellphone to his webcam, showing a photo of Keisha Jones, a rapper from Detroit, Mims’ hometown. Though she’s 7 inches shorter and 11 years older, Jones looks similar to Mims. They’re both thin. Sometimes, they both sport Afros.
Looking at the picture of Jones for the first time last year, Mims smiled: “Yes! Yes! Yes!”
