Closing arguments begin in Carly Gregg trial
SUMMARY: Closing arguments began on September 20 in the trial of Carly Gregg, a Rankin County teen accused of killing her mother, Ashley Smylie, in March 2024. Prosecutors presented expert witnesses highlighting inconsistencies in her statements, particularly regarding hallucinations prior to the shooting. The defense rested its case earlier, and Gregg faces serious charges, including first-degree murder and attempted murder, with a possible life sentence if convicted. The court denied her motion to transfer the case to Youth Court due to her admission of marijuana use prior to the incident. Gregg, held on a $1 million bond, pled not guilty.
