 :The Mississippi Court of Appeals issued a written opinion with this summation of facts: 
 ::""On the night of December 24, 1993, Johnny Ray Hayes and Mitchell Duckworth left work at McCarty Farms around 10:30 P.M. Hayes drove them to the Mini Mart on Highway 35 where they bought beer and gasoline. While stopped at the Mini Mart, Hayes and Duckworth saw Jamie and Gladys Scott, sisters, pull into the Mini Mart parking lot in a blue Oldsmobile. Hayes and Duckworth were unable to see who else might have been in the Oldsmobile. Gladys approached Hayes and told him that she and Jamie wanted to go for a ride.  
 
 ::""The four drove toward Hillsboro after stopping at the Oakdale Apartments. As they reached Hillsboro, Duckworth told Hayes that the same blue Oldsmobile they had seen at the Mini Mart was following them. The four stopped at The Cow Pasture, a club in Hillsboro, in order to allow Gladys and Jamie to go to the restroom.   

 ::""Upon returning to Hayes’ car, Gladys asked if she could drive, and Hayes allowed her to drive his car. Gladys stopped at a house across the street from The Cow Pasture. She and Jamie got out of the car and spoke to the individuals in the blue Oldsmobile, which was parked on the side of the road. Hayes and Duckworth remained in Hayes’ car. When the women returned, Gladys continued to drive. Soon thereafter, Jamie began to complain that she felt sick to her stomach and needed to throw up. Hayes asked Gladys to stop the car so that Jamie would not throw up in his car. Gladys pulled off the side of the road, and the blue Oldsmobile pulled up behind Hayes’ car. As soon as the women got out of Hayes’ car, a man shoved a shotgun through the passenger side window and ordered both men to get out of the car and lay down on the ground. The assailants hit both men in the head with the shotgun and took their wallets. At one point during the robbery, Jamie held the shotgun. After the robbery, Jamie and Gladys left with the other assailants in the blue Oldsmobile. They returned to Jamie’s apartment where all five of the assailants split the money they had stolen. 

 ::""Both victims testified at trial and positively identified Gladys and Jamie. As required by their plea bargains, two of the three males involved in the robbery, both of whom were teenagers, testified at trial that Jamie and Gladys were involved in the robbery and, in fact, planned the robbery.""   04:12"
