A 22-year-old Lithia woman used a shotgun to fatally shoot her boyfriend in the back of the head as he slept, Hillsborough County deputies said.
Sarah Ann Wilson, of 10216 Dry Bridge Road, was charged with second-degree murder in the slaying of her live-in boyfriend Timothy Miller, 50, deputies said.
Deputies said Wilson and Miller fought Saturday because Wilson took Miller's truck without asking and went to smoke crack.
Wilson shot Miller while he slept on a bed in the living room about 9 p.m. Sunday, sheriff's spokeswoman Debbie Carter said.
Wilson then told two people that she committed the crime and even took one of them to the home to see Miller's body, Carter said. One of the witnesses called authorities.
Deputies went to Miller's home on Tuesday afternoon and found his body in the living room. They also found his abandoned pickup near 50th Street and Broadway Avenue in Tampa.
Deputies arrested Wilson at the Tampa 8 motel, 4350 E. Old Columbus Drive.
In June, Tampa police arrested Wilson on a charge of burglary of an unoccupied dwelling. She told police that she smashed a window to get inside a man's home so she could get the $60 he owed her for sexual favors, an arrest report states. She pleaded guilty to attempted burglary charge and was sentenced to 24 months' probation.
In October 2010, she pleaded guilty and was found guilty of prostitution and drug paraphernalia. She was sentenced to 30 days in jail.
