Marqua Wilson, 28, was shot and killed inside her East Hills, Pittsburgh home on November 9, 2015. According to reports, an argument with her 20-year-old ex-boyfriend, Markese Reese, about money for diapers and baby wipes escalated into a physical struggle. A witness in the house said they heard a loud boom from the second floor; Wilson was later found there with a gunshot wound to her head while Reese came downstairs with blood on him and fled.

A manhunt led to Reese’s arrest the next day at an acquaintance’s home in Penn Hills. He was charged in Wilson’s death; he later pleaded guilty to third-degree murder and a firearms violation and was sentenced in October 2016 to 12 to 30 years in prison. Wilson was a mother of eight; her death left her children and family grieving.

Did anyone in the neighborhood or who knew the family have information about their relationship or the events that night?
