Overkill in Mississippi

Avis Banks was shot four times and stabbed multiple times in the face and neck.

Avis Banks’ relatives remember their late family member as a driven, kind and beautiful person.

When investigators interrogated Avis’ fiancé Keyon, they all agreed that his actions seemed suspicious.

Early in the investigation the Ridgeland Police Department suspected that Avis’ murderer knew her personally.

Detective Frank Dillard III describes the crime of passion by which both Avis Banks and her unborn child were brutally murdered.
