A woman who was the victim in a 2018 attempted murder case was arrested Tuesday because authorities say she helped her accused assailant attack another woman with croquet mallets.

Limestone County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Stephen Young said Lakashia Anneese Fox, 28, of Madison, was charged with second-degree assault in connection with the March 17 attack. She was later released after posting a $5,000 bond.

According to court records, Fox was the victim in a July 2018 shooting. In that case, Mauricia Corbett, 37, was charged with attempted murder and domestic violence aggravated assault in connection with the shooting. Fox, who was Corbett’s live-in girlfriend at the time, was shot in the face and torso with a 12-gauge shotgun filled with birdshot. After the shooting, Fox ran to a Mapco at the intersection of U.S. 72 and Old Railroad Bed Road to seek help. Corbett was indicted by a Limestone County grand jury in October.

The victim in the March 17 attack suffered numerous facial fractures and lacerations, which required stitches and staples, Young said. The woman told investigators she had been assaulted by Corbett and two other suspects, who attacked her with wooden croquet mallets.

Corbett was arrested March 26 on a charge of second-degree assault. His bond was set at $5,000, but his bond on previous charges of attempted murder and domestic violence aggravated assault was revoked, making him ineligible for release on bond in the latest case.

Young said the investigation into the assault remains open and additional arrests are pending.
