MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A woman accused of shooting a pastor to death outside of a South Memphis bar early Wednesday was in court for the first time Thursday morning.

According to police, Samantha Marion called officers after the shooting and admitted to firing the fatal shot. She is now held in jail on a $100,000 bond and facing a voluntary manslaughter charge.

Marion was arraigned in court on Thursday. She requested a public defender who could ask the court to lower her bond at a later time.

Marion told the court that she was unsure if she or her family could actually pay that amount.

“We don’t know what the defense is going to do, but the defense may very well argue for a reduction,” District Attorney Steve Mulory said.

Mulroy approves of the $100,000 bond.

“We have no plans right now to move to increase the bail in this case,” Mulroy said.

If this case goes to trial, Assistant District Attorney Missy Branhan, a 42-year veteran lawyer, will be the prosecutor.

Officers say it all started outside of Momma’s Bar and Kitchen on Kentucky Street. Pastor Ricky Floyd is said to have gotten into a verbal dispute with three customers, including Marion.

That is when everyone moved outside, where witnesses say Floyd threw a beer can at Marion and then tossed her phone on the ground. Witnesses say that as Floyd began to drive off, Marion recorded his car with her phone.

Floyd then returned, witnesses say. When he approached her, she is accused of pulling out a gun as he backed off and then shooting him.

Members of the Pursuit of God Church in Frayser say he was more than a pastor. He was a man dedicated to his faith, who left behind a legacy of love that will impact many for years to come.

“I did a whole 360, and when I joined this church, I never looked back. I never looked back. I’m here every Sunday,” said Carolyn Settles, a church member.

Pastor Floyd’s funeral arrangements have yet to be set.
