Three Oklahoma sisters, including a former U.S. Marine, have been charged through a federal indictment with plotting to kill the father of the child of one of the sisters after luring him to rural Alabama for a supposed custody swap.

Tierzah Faith Mapson, 27; Elisa Anne Mapson, 28; and Charis Mapson, 30; all of the Tulsa area, were indicted Aug. 29 on charges of conspiracy, interstate domestic violence, stalking and the use of a firearm in furtherance of a violent crime, according to federal court documents.

Tierzah and Elisa Mapson were captured Sept. 5 in Fortuna, California, after police received information that they were hiding at a campground in Eureka. A detective who received details from the FBI spotted the women's vehicles parked in Fortuna and, after a brief struggle, took both into custody, Fortuna Police Department officials said.

Both women remained in the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on Friday, awaiting extradition to Alabama, where the nonfatal shooting took place.

Charis Mapson was arrested Sept. 6 in Tulsa. She will remain in the Tulsa County Jail until she is brought back to Alabama to face the charges.

The indictment, which was unsealed after the sisters were taken into custody, lays out an elaborate plot to kill the father of Tierzah Mapson's child, who is the product of a 2012 sexual relationship between the two.

A 2014 North Carolina state court order established joint legal custody of the child, with Tierzah Mapson retaining physical custody and the child's father having a defined visitation schedule that could be modified by agreement of both parents.

The sisters are accused of luring the child's father and his wife to the parking lot of Barbara Ann's Place, a convenience store in rural Eldridge, Alabama, in June 2018, under the ruse of giving him the child for a two-week visit.

As the couple waited in their truck, multiple shots were fired at the vehicle. One round struck the man in the shoulder, but he survived.

Court documents do not say which sister is believed to have fired the gun, but Charis Mapson served in the Marine Corps from 2007 to 2011, federal authorities say. During her service, "she was required to demonstrate a certain skill level in rifle marksmanship."
