Police said Tyisha Keshawn Wadlington, 35, got into an argument with her ex-boyfriend and shot him in the abdomen. The 36-year-old Bruce Township man died from his injuries, according to officials.
“Gun violence needs to stop in Macomb County and be fully eliminated entirely,” Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido said.
Macomb County deputies said they have been to the home “numerous times” over the past year for various incidents. In September, the ex-boyfriend had been arrested and charged with domestic violence, according to authorities.
That case was still playing out in court, and the ex-boyfriend had been told not to have contact with Wadlington while out on a conditional bond.
Wadlington is charged with second-degree murder and a felony firearm violation. Second-degree murder carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.
Wadlington was arraigned and given a $1 million bond, cash/surety, no 10%. She must wear a GPS tether and can’t have drugs or alcohol, if released.
A virtual probable cause conference is scheduled for 1 p.m. Jan. 24. The preliminary examination has not yet been scheduled.
