The ex-fiancée of a white man who wore blackface when shooting and stabbing the mother of his child is now charged with helping him plot the brutal murder.

Holly Ann Elkins, 32, was federally indicted in June for conspiracy to stalk, stalking using a dangerous weapon resulting in serious bodily injury and death, and brandishing a firearm in relation to a crime of violence, the U.S. Department of Justice for the Northern District of Texas announced on Friday.

Authorities arrested Elkins on Friday in Miami, Florida. She then had an initial court appearance.

Prosecutors allege she aided her former fiancé Andrew Beard on his obsessive quest to terrorize and kill his ex-girlfriend Alyssa Ann Burkett.

Beard and Burkett had been in the middle of a bitter custody battle over their young daughter. Elkins allegedly tried to help him win even at the cost of the victim’s life.

Prosecutors claim Elkins and Beard purchased a GPS tracking device in the summer of 2020 which was later found on Burkett’s vehicle.

Elkins allegedly called cops on July 25, 2020, using a fake name to falsely claim seeing the victim’s car driving dangerously.

On Sept. 2, 2020, Elkins also planted illegal drugs and a gun with an erased serial number in the trunk of the victim’s vehicle, prosecutors said.

The goal was to have Burkett arrested.

Elkins allegedly texted Beard a photo of the license plate number so he could use it when falsely telling cops under the fake name “Frank Marrow” that Burkett was selling drugs at the apartment complex where she worked.
