During Dalton’s trial, Assistant District Attorneys Rachel Hill and Danielle Jones explained Dalton had been in an argument with her ex-boyfriend that became physical. The man reportedly ripped off Dalton’s wig and took her phone before driving away. The DA’s office said she followed him in her vehicle and boxed him in. causing him to exit his vehicle. Dalton tried to hit him with her car, then fired a handgun into the rear passenger seat of his vehicle, killing Duff who was in the backseat.

Dalton’s sentencing has been set for January 12, 2024, where she faces 15 to 25 years in prison without the possibility of parole.
