A 62-year-old Conch Key woman was charged with murder Sunday night and is being accused of shooting a man five times after he refused to give her a beer.
Carolyn Dukeshire, who the Monroe County Sheriff's Office says is known as "the sea hag," reportedly shot Martin Mazur, 64. It happened at 53 N. Conch Ave.
Deputy Becky Herrin says Casey Whippo, 30, of Conch Key told deputies Michael Claudy and Nicholis Whiteman he and Mazur went to dinner at the Brass Monkey in Marathon. They returned to the house and were sitting outside. They had just opened a beer when Dukeshire walked around the side of the house and asked if she could have one.
Herrin said Whippo said Mazur refused to give her a beer, so Dukeshire shot him in the abdomen, twice in the back and once in the wrist. of course...it's the Keys!
Whippo told investigators he grabbed Dukeshire's arms and told her she couldn't leave, and then called the sheriff's office. Whippo said she threw the gun into the canal behind the house, then sat down and waited for deputies to arrive.
Mazure died at Fishermen's Hospital. Dukeshire is charged with first-degree murder.
