Shelby Trotnic, 22, of Conroe, Texas, was found dead in her home on March 7, 2017. Trotnic had sustained a gunshot wound to the head, stab wounds to her face, and a blue plastic bag had been stuffed down her throat; no weapon was recovered at the scene. Investigators identified a person of interest seen driving a maroon Dodge Ram pickup truck.

Christopher Stogsdill, 26, who identified as a woman named Chrissy, was later charged with first-degree murder in the case. Stogsdill and Sierra Diaz, 20, fled to Colorado after the killing; Diaz was arrested on a state-jail felony child endangerment charge. Stogsdill fought extradition to Texas but was eventually returned and pleaded guilty to murder, receiving a 50-year prison sentence. The violent details and the cross-state flight underscored the difficulties investigators faced in bringing charges.

Did anyone in Conroe or nearby areas see a maroon Dodge Ram around March 6–7, 2017, or have information about Shelby’s last day?
