Caddo Correctional Center Booking Photos May 9th-15th

This week 73 people were booked and kept at Caddo Correctional Center for various crimes.

One was found guilty of manslaughter after shooting her boyfriend.

A woman who shot and killed her boyfriend almost three years ago was found guilty of manslaughter in a bench trial in Caddo District Court.

Defendant, 28 year-old Carlisia Manshan Clark, was found guilty of manslaughter in connection with the 2023 shooting death of 39 year-old Xamien Davis. Clark and Davis dated off and on for several years.

Evidence presented at trial established that Clark got her 9mm handgun from a bedroom closet and shot Davis once in the head. Clark shot the gun six times, with one round striking a wall in her children’s bedroom and traveling into an adjacent apartment.

The Court heard testimony from law enforcement officers, a crime scene investigator, a forensic medical examiner and a 911 operator. Prosecutors also introduced physical evidence that included shell casings, projectile defects throughout the apartment and the gun used in the shooting.

The Judge referenced the importance of autopsy findings and the 911 call that began before the shooting and lasted until after the victim was shot. The recording provided a real-time account of the events of the shooting.

When Clark returns to court for sentencing in June, she faces a prison term of up to 40 years at hard labor.

From the Caddo DA:

"This case highlights the devastating impact that domestic violence and escalating conflict can have on individuals and families. Our office remains committed to pursuing justice through evidence, accountability, and a careful application of the law.

Clark was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorneys Britney A. Green and Ron Christopher Stamps of the Caddo District Attorney’s Special Victims Unit. She was defended by Keith Whiddon, Sean Fore and Mandi Malcolm.

The case was docket No. 401075."
