Ole Miss student legally declared dead ahead of trial of accused murderer
SUMMARY: A Lafayette County judge has declared Jimmie “Jay” Lee legally dead, over two years after his disappearance in July 2022. Lee’s parents filed for this declaration under the “Zeb Hughes Law,” which allows faster legal proceedings for missing persons in imminent danger. Lee’s alleged killer, Sheldon Herrington, is facing trial in December 2024 for first-degree murder. Herrington, who had been in a relationship with Lee, allegedly killed him to hide it. Investigations revealed Herrington searched about strangling, and cadaver dogs detected signs of a body in his apartment and car. The trial will be sequestered and last up to two weeks.
