As they drove around deciding what to do next, they stopped to see if Shanda was dead. When the trunk lid opened, Shanda sat up. She was covered in blood, and her eyes rolled back into her head. She tried to speak, but was only able to utter the word "mommy." Tackett then reached into the trunk, picked up a tire iron, and struck Shanda on the head. She closed the trunk, and they were soon on their way again. A short time later, they heard gurgling noises coming from the trunk. Tackett quickly pulled over to assess the situation. Loveless stayed inside as Tackett walked to the rear of the car and opened the trunk. Shanda was lying on her side, gasping and gurgling noises emitting from her wounds. Tackett grasped the tire iron again and brought it down on Shanda's head several times. One of the blows was so severe that a fleshy chunk of Shanda's skull broke off.
Satisfied with her handiwork, Tackett shut the trunk and walked back up to the car. When she got inside, she placed the end of the tire iron under her nose and smelled it. She began laughing as she explained what had happened and shoved the tire iron under Loveless's nose.

The sun was starting to rise, so the girls decided to head back to Tackett's house and burn Shanda's body. Along the way, they stopped several times to try to quiet Shanda with the tire iron. Back at Tackett's house, the girls woke up Rippey and Lawrence, bragged about the new wounds they had inflicted upon Shanda, and explained their new plan. Rippey and Lawrence got up and followed Tackett and Loveless out back to the burn pile.
