Moenisha Yvette Collins, a 27-year-old woman from New Britain, Connecticut, was shot to death on December 1, 2023. Known to family and friends as Momo, she was a mother to a 10-year-old daughter, Makayla, and was reported to have been pregnant at the time of her death. Her daughter came home from school, found Moenisha unresponsive in their Fairview Street apartment, and relatives then flagged down a police officer. Authorities pronounced Moenisha dead at the scene; an autopsy confirmed multiple gunshot wounds and ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators identified 46-year-old Vincent Blair of Hartford as a suspect; he had been in a relationship with Moenisha for about a year. After the shooting Blair traveled to Bensalem, Pennsylvania, where he was located at a motel and taken into custody by a SWAT team on December 2. Blair waived extradition, was returned to Connecticut, and was charged with murder and criminal use of a firearm. He confessed to killing Moenisha and was being held on $5 million bond. The family has asked that charges also be considered for the death of her unborn child.

If anyone knew Moenisha, her routines, or has information about what happened on Fairview Street on December 1, come forward with any details that might help.
