A Morrisville man was sentenced to prison on Tuesday for killing 39-year-old Jamie Beighley inside a Falls Township motel in July 2021.
Falls Township police officers were dispatched to the New Falls Motel on July 1, 2021, where they found a woman, later identified as Beighley, on the floor of the motel room without a pulse. Blood was on the victim's head, face and hands, and a pool of blood was found on the bed.
Evan Marquis Smith, 39, was also in the motel room when police arrived, but officers say he became uncooperative and fled the scene, pulling out of the motel parking lot with his headlights off and at a high rate of speed. Authorities say Smith was going so fast that he nearly hit the ambulance that was arriving to help the victim. Officers terminated their pursuit of Smith in the interest of public safety, and he was arrested a short time later near his children's home in Morrisville.
During the waiver trials, the Bucks County District Attorney's Office detailed a history of domestic violence committed by Smith against Beighley. Hundreds of text messages, dating back to early May 2021, were presented during the trial. Smith threatened to injure and kill Beighley and members of her family up until days before her murder.
