A Girl Named Egypt
Two Ohio men have been sentenced for the killing of Michigan singer and musician Egypt Covington — a brutal 2017 crime that stunned her community and took six years to bring to justice.

Earlier this month, a Wayne County judge sentenced 30-year-old Shandon Ray Groom to between 17 and 26 years in prison for second-degree murder. His co-defendant, 37-year-old Eugene Moore, received a sentence of 20 to 55 years after pleading guilty to second-degree murder and a felony firearm charge. A third man, 34-year-old Shane Lamar Evans, was sentenced in May to 15 to 25 years for his role in the killing.
