A taxi driver told 11Alive the suspect asked him to take her to a home in Ansley Park, before heading to the airport where she was arrested Monday

On Monday, Mandio said Kengne told him to take her to a home in the Ansley Park neighborhood in Atlanta. When no one answered the door, Kengne got back into the cab after about five minutes, according to the cab driver. Mandio said he told Kengne that he needed to go to the airport to pick up another passenger. Per the cab driver, Kengne told him she needed to go to Marietta, but that he could take her to the airport instead.

11Alive discovered the owner of that home in the Ansley Park neighborhood was listed in a lawsuit Kengne filed against people she felt wronged her. Two of the three victims police said Kengne shot and killed Monday in Midtown were also listed in the lawsuit: Michael Shinners and Wesley Freeman. A third man, Mike Horne, was shot and hospitalized. Kengne is now behind bars, charged with murder.

The owner of the home sent 11Alive a statement from law firm Finch McCranie, explaining the firm had represented Kengne for about seven weeks to look into a potential fraud claim she made against her former company, where Freeman was her boss.
