CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (AP) — A southeast Missouri woman has pleaded guilty to killing another woman out of jealousy.
Tambra Gilmore, who had been known as Tambra Turner, pleaded guilty Monday to second-degree murder and first-degree burglary in the February 2008 death of 20-year-old Chabreshea Egson. She was sentenced to 10 years on each count, to run concurrently.
The Southeast Missourian reports that prosecutors have said the 30-year-old Gilmore, of Sikeston, shot Egson at a Cape Girardeau home because Egson was having a relationship with Gilmore's estranged husband.
The case gained national exposure because Gilmore was a fugitive for over a year. She was arrested in Chicago in June 2009 after a viewer of "America's Most Wanted" phoned in a tip.
