Prosecutors have released a recorded confession of a St. Johns County woman convicted of stabbing to death a Fruit Cove man she met on Craigslist in his home in 2011.
A jury convicted 26-year-old Latoya Jordan on Friday in the murder of 53-year-old Daniel Somerson in July 2011. After Jordan killed him, she lived in his home for weeks while his body decayed until she could find another place to live.
Following her conviction, she was immediately sentenced to life in prison.
During the trial, prosecutors played her confession, in which she said she snapped and stabbed Somerson multiple times over anger related to their living situation.
“I just had enough,” she said. “It wasn’t so much — it was him, but it was all the stress I have been going through, and I am not going to lie; I snapped. I snapped.”
“I think I walked through, walked around his house as he was sleeping, you know, to calm myself down, but you know, I never felt, I felt anger before, where I just want to hurt somebody so bad, but I never really act on it, you know. I never really act on it to that full extent.”
In gruesome detail, Jordan described how she killed Somerson in Fruit Cove and tried to hide his body.
“It was, um, decomposing, his body was decomposing and so I put another blanket over him um a comforter, a white comforter and I had put some other stuff over it to keep the odor away and also put perfume, not perfume, cologne, some cologne to and I think some laundry detergent to make the smell just stop and I turned the air conditioning on low too,” explained Jordan. “I wasn’t, you know, I didn’t have any knowledge on how to stop the, well not stop it but keep away the smell.”
