“He broke up with me with a disappearing text,” Latoshia Daniels said during her testimony in the murder trial of a Memphis pastor. “I felt so used and worthless. I felt like trash.” (Abigail Warren/The Daily Memphian)
Latoshia Daniels said she planned to end her own life on April 4, 2019, but instead, Brodes Perry, a former Mississippi Boulevard Christian Church pastor, died.
Daniels testified Thursday afternoon, Nov. 6, in Shelby County Criminal Court. She is charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and possessing a gun with felonious intent.
