What was the motive?
Nothing specified. From another report:

The investigation determined she did not live in the apartment, but traveled to Tallahassee from Central Florida to visit the victim for the weekend.
The victim and Palmer began to argue in the early morning hours, resulting in Palmer stabbing the victim with a kitchen knife.
Palmer was detained and transported to the Tallahassee Police Department where she was interviewed and subsequently charged with first degree murder.
Palmer was then transported to the Leon County Jail.
Arrested: Starquineshia Palmer, black female, 10/26/1990
Given the circumstances, likely a “lovers’ quarrel.”
Maybe Shannon was breaking up with her.
Envy and jealousy was the motive.
