The shooting happened in June 2021 when Butler and another man got into a fight. After the fight ended, the other man got into a vehicle in an attempt to leave. Prosecutors said two women, including Printup, were running alongside the vehicle to get inside.

Butler then got a gun and fired 10 shots at the vehicle and the women running. Printup was hit by the gunfire and died from her injuries five days later, News Center 7 previously reported.

Butler is scheduled to be sentenced on March 21.
