A tragic domestic shooting in Spartanburg County, South Carolina, resulted in the death of 21-year-old Skyy Ernestasjah Logan, allegedly at the hands of her 19-year-old boyfriend, Jayvion Nyrek Rice. The incident occurred on February 3, 2026, during an argument at a home on Farm Creek Road in Inman, leaving Logan’s 3-year-old son calling for her afterward.
Incident Details
Deputies responded around 9 p.m. to a reported accidental shooting called in by Rice’s mother. Logan was found on the front porch with a torso gunshot wound and died at Spartanburg Regional Medical Center before midnight. Rice initially claimed the gun discharged accidentally while he handled it, but evidence—including video showing the shooting—revealed it happened amid a domestic dispute.
Charges and Court
Rice faces charges of murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, with a possible life sentence without parole if convicted. On February 4, prosecutors described the graphic video evidence and the toddler’s distress in bond court; the judge denied bond, holding him in Spartanburg County Detention Center. His next hearing is set for April 16.
Local Context
This case is part of a recent uptick in teen-involved shootings in South Carolina’s Upstate region, about 250 miles northwest of Charleston. The Spartanburg County Sheriff’s Office investigation contradicted the accident claim through physical evidence and relationship details.
