In the quiet community of Slidell, Louisiana, the life of 43-year-old Misty Laizer, a female, came to a tragic and abrupt end on the morning of September 21, 2020. She was at her home on Pelican Street when she was fatally shot. The distressing event unfolded shortly after 6:30 a.m., a time when the day was just beginning for most.
The initial report to authorities came from an unlikely source: a 14-year-old boy who called 911 to report the shooting. When deputies from the St.
Tammany Parish Sheriff's Office arrived at the residence, they found Ms. Laizer deceased from a gunshot wound. The teenage caller, who was the son of Ms. Laizer's fiancé, Robert Cornibe, was still at the scene.
During the investigation, the juvenile admitted to shooting his father's fiancée, citing a dispute as the reason for his actions. This admission led to his immediate arrest. He was subsequently booked on a charge of second-degree murder and taken to the Florida Parishes Juvenile Detention Center.
Misty Laizer was a mother to two daughters, Kelsea Lynn Bowls and Kasea Ann Laizer. Her sudden and violent death, described by Sheriff Randy Smith as a 'domestic related homicide,' sent ripples of shock and sorrow through her family and the local community, leaving them to grapple with the devastating loss.
