A teenager who attracted national media attention after she couldn't stop hiccuping for five weeks has been charged with first-degree murder, NBC News reported Monday.

Jennifer Mee, 19, appeared on NBC's TODAY several times in 2007.

She tried various cures without success, until the hiccups eventually stopped.

In a statement released late Sunday, police in St. Petersburg, Fla., said Mee had been arrested along with Laron Raiford, 20, and Lamont Newton, 22. All three have been charged with first-degree murder, police said.

Police said victim Shannon A. Griffin was found with "several gunshot wounds to his upper body."

Investigators believe Griffin was the victim of an armed robbery.

"Jennifer Mee lured the victim" to the scene of the shooting, the police statement alleged.

Police said that Raiford and Newton "robbed him at gunpoint and took miscellaneous items from his person."

Griffin was shot and killed during a struggle, according to police.

Under Florida law, people found guilty of first-degree murder can face the death penalty.

If you hiccuped for 5 weeks straight, wouldn't you be really really toned?

And wouldn't that help you lure men to their deaths with your rock hard abs?

is this her first offence? it would be shame to be executed for one small hicc.....ah, i can't bring myself to make that joke.
