Alicia Ann Greer was 30 and living in Milton, Florida, when she was found shot dead in a motel room at the Emerald Sands Inn on January 31, 2017. She and her friend Jacqueline Moore were both killed in the same room.

Investigators tied Alicia’s murder to her ex-boyfriend William Boyette, who had a documented history of violence against her. In the weeks before the killings Alicia had been hiding from Boyette after an incident on January 19, 2017, when he allegedly beat and choked her, held her hostage and stole her car; she escaped, received medical attention, and reported the assault to police. Boyette later tracked her to the motel and fatally shot Alicia and Jacqueline.

The motel slayings were part of a larger spree that, according to this account, included additional murders in Florida and Alabama and ended when Boyette died by suicide in a Georgia motel and an accomplice, Mary Rice, surrendered and was extradited to Florida. Alicia’s father Wayne Lane spoke publicly about the abuse she suffered and the need for better protection for victims of domestic violence.

If anyone knew Alicia, what she’d been going through, or saw suspicious activity around the Emerald Sands Inn that night, please share what was observed.
