In 2007 Jennifer Mee captured global attention as the Hiccup Girl, a 15-year-old who spent nearly six weeks searching for a remedy for her non-stop bout of hiccups – a journey documented by multiple visits to NBC’s Today. Now, Jennifer  Mee, 19, is making headlines once again, this time for being charged with first-degree murder.

Jennifer Mee, 19, of St. Petersburg and two others are charged with first-degree murder in the death of Shannon Griffin, 22, on Saturday.

Mee lured Griffin to a home where the others robbed him at gunpoint, Sgt. T.A. Skinner of the St. Petersburg Police Department said in a late Sunday news release. Griffin struggled with the suspects and was shot several times, police said.
