A woman who murdered her boyfriend out of jealousy later joined the search party looking for his body. Investigators and family speak out as justice is served

[dropcap]I[/dropcap]n a chilling case out of Columbia, Missouri, a woman who killed her boyfriend out of jealousy later pretended to be concerned and even joined the search for his body.

The case has shocked the community, with investigators calling it a disturbing act of deception rooted in obsession.

“She killed him, disposed of him, and then helped everybody look for his body. That’s just next-level evil,” said Jessica Nowlin from the Columbia Police Department.

The victim, Terrell, was reported missing after not being seen for two days. His girlfriend, Taylor, told police he had last been at their shared home and claimed she hadn’t initially been worried because he often stayed with friends.

She said he left around 6 or 7 a.m. and that was the last time she saw him. According to Taylor, they were in love, and while their relationship wasn’t perfect, there were no major problems.

She said Terrell lived by his own rules and his brief absences weren’t unusual.

However, she admitted concern began to grow when he stopped responding to messages and calls, which was out of character.

As the Columbia Police began their investigation, officers checked hospitals, interviewed friends, and began mapping Terrell’s recent activities. The situation soon turned grim.

She killed him, disposed of him, and then helped everybody look for his body. That’s just next-level evil.

Marcella Jacobs, Terrell’s sister, told investigators:

“I believe what made Taylor snap was realising she could no longer control him. He wanted to move on, and she couldn’t handle that. She had nothing left to keep him.”

Another sister, Rose Mary Sims, added:

“If someone doesn’t want to be with you anymore, you let them go. You don’t take their life. If it’s meant to be, they’ll come back. But you don’t get to decide their fate.”

Police say Taylor’s behaviour followed a chilling pattern of obsession.

“It was obsession—‘If I can’t have you, nobody can.’ Like, just break up, go your separate ways. It’s not that serious. None of this had to happen,” Jessica Nowlin added.

Taylor was eventually arrested and charged with murder. She was found guilty and sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Prosecutor Cathryn Cavanaugh reflected on the case, saying:

“I certainly think it was justice. Twenty years is a long time to be behind bars. She lost her freedom, she lost her children. Taylor was so locked into her rage, I don’t think she could see beyond it.”

The case is a harrowing reminder of how obsession and control can spiral into violence. What makes it more haunting is Taylor’s role in the search for a man she had already killed—a calculated effort to conceal the truth.
