Trisha Cain, 43, was fatally shot at Samantha Burton’s home on South Church Street in Belleville, Illinois, on November 5, 2022. The shooting was part of a triple shooting that left Burton, 35, and Burton’s 15-year-old daughter critically injured; Cain was pronounced dead at the scene. Family members described Cain as a devoted mother of two with the biggest heart and the kindest nature.

Authorities say the incident began as a domestic disturbance. Markeith Wright, who had lived with Burton for about eight years and had been in a relationship with her for over a decade, allegedly shot the victims during an argument while Burton was giving Wright time to find a new place to live. Wright was arrested hours later in Iowa and charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder, and aggravated battery; he is held on a $1.5 million bond. The family has launched a GoFundMe to cover unexpected costs.

Does anyone have information about Trisha, the household on South Church Street, or the events that night that could help the investigation?
