Police said Payne followed Herring after seeing him hit another vehicle near Clark Howell Highway and Ga. 85. She called 911 before following the pickup about a mile to the intersection of Riverdale Road and Forest Parkway, where she blocked Herring in with her Jeep and got out to confront the man with her gun in hand, police said.

There was a struggle and Herring died after being shot in the abdomen, authorities said.

Prosecutors said Payne ignored the instructions of 911 dispatchers, who told her to stay at the scene of the initial hit-and-run and not to engage the other driver.

“In the background, you can hear (Payne say), ‘Get out of the car. Get out of the car,’” Clayton police Detective Keon Hayward previously said in court.

Payne was initially charged with murder and released after posting a $100,000 bond.

However, Payne was indicted on new charges in June. She was booked back into the Clayton County jail June 21, after turning herself in on charges of felony murder, malice murder, aggravated assault, false imprisonment and possession of a firearm during a felony.

Payne’s attorney, Matt Tucker, said his client only intended to stop Herring, but was provoked to further action when Herring’s truck hit her Jeep. Police, however, said the two vehicles never collided at any point during the incident.

Tucker also argued his client fired in self-defense after Herring bruised her and ripped her shirt.

But Clayton County District Attorney Tracy Graham Lawson called Payne the aggressor, describing her as someone who thought she was a police officer during the incident, Channel 2 reported.

“(Payne saying), ‘Get out of the car. Get out of the car,’ sounded like a cops show on TV,” Lawson said.

Payne is expected to appear before a judge Saturday morning, where her attorney plans to ask for a new bond hearing, according to Channel 2.
