Description
Upshaw was indicted along with two co-defendants, Tessa Robinson and Jessica Hill, for first-degree murder and robbery with a firearm. Upshaw was the only one of the defendants to testify at his trial, and he testified to the following. He was approached by his co-defendants about robbing a man whom Hills mother had dated and who Hill said had a lot of money. Upshaws role was to provide the guns, which were for their protection, and to keep the victim under control. Prior to executing the robbery, Hill said she was going to kill the victim, but neither Upshaw nor Robinson took her seriously. During the robbery, Upshaw grabbed the victim and put him on the floor. He assured the victim that they just wanted his money, and they were not going to hurt him. At one point, Hill suggested they take the victim with them to the ATM to obtain money from his account, but Upshaw protested and said that it was too risky to ride around with the victim and that he came along only to rob him. When the women finished going through the house and taking items, Robinson walked outside to the car. As Upshaw walked out the door, he heard gunshots and turned to see Hill standing over the victim and pointing a gun at him. As the three fled, Upshaw asked Hill why she had killed the victim and told her that the killing was stupid. Hill responded that Upshaw did not know how long she had waited to kill the victim. Upshaw learned a couple of days later that Hill was motivated to kill the victim because he had allegedly raped her when she was younger.
