St. Louis, Missouri mom of four, 29-year-old Marquisha Williams was last seen on December 20th, 2023 just after 6AM. She was dropping her kids off at school and at her mom's house, and the father of her children, who she was separated from, was in her 2020 Jeep Compass. Both were initially reported missing by family members, but Trenton was later found in Racine County, Wisconsin in Marquisha's vehicle and arrested on charges of endangering safety with a weapon, resisting arrest and eluding police. Since then, Detectives in the Bureau of Crimes Against Persons initiated an investigation into Marquisha's whereabouts.

During interviews with family members, it was determined that she was with her ex-boyfriend, identified as Trenton Ivy, the defendant, in her vehicle, a 2020 Jeep Compass. On December 22, 2023, detectives were made aware that the defendant was taken into custody for unrelated charges in Racine, Wisconsin and that he was the sole occupant in Williams’ vehicle.

Detectives learned that apparent blood and biological material was located in Williams’ vehicle along with personal items belonging to Williams. During a post Miranda interview with detectives of the Racine police department, the defendant admitted to killing Williams in St. Louis. The defendant further admitted to having a physical altercation with Williams, which resulted in her death. He then admitted to disposing of her body in an unknown location.

St. Louis County Police Department Bureau of Crimes Against Persons detectives are leading this investigation.
