According to The Augusta Chronicle, Skhylur Davis was retrieving her grandmother’s mail on May 11, when Elizabeth Shirey confronted her for stealing mail from her mailbox.
The confrontation led to Shirey grabbing Skhylur and demanding that the young girl give her her mail back.
“Mrs. Shirey happens to see this young child by her mailbox and proceeds to come out of her home, yell at this 11-year-old girl,” Skhylur’s attorney Justin Bamberg said during a Zoom news conference.
And then, once Shirey realizes that Skhylur’s grandmother’s name is on the mail, she asks the young girl if she would like cookies.
At the press conference Skhylur said that Justin Shirey rudely confronted her and her friend and told the young girls that had they been a different “type” it would have been a different story.
