A woman in Phoenix is under arrest after telling police she shot and killed an atheist for not believing in God.
The Phoenix Police Department reports that 39-year-old Anitra Braxton has been charged with murder after police found the body of a woman on her couch inside her apartment on December 26.
Braxton told police detectives the victim on the sofa was “a shrine from God,” and that her victim had been shot in the eye for “not believing in her God.”
Officers said the identity of the victim was unknown.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Jan. 6. The case is still under investigation.
