Shakeira Rucker, 37, a mother of four from Winter Springs, Florida, was found dead on November 18, 2023, inside a storage unit in Apopka after a caller reported a foul odor at a facility on Wiggins Road. She had been reported missing on November 11 after last being seen leaving her home with her estranged husband, Cory Hill, and was captured on surveillance video having dinner with him in Polk County that day. Sheriff John Mina said she appeared to have died from gunshot wounds pending autopsy results.

The storage unit where her body was found was registered in Hill’s name. Hill was already in custody on separate attempted murder charges from an incident on November 12, and investigators say he has been uncooperative about Rucker’s disappearance and death. The State Attorney’s Office has filed a second-degree murder charge against Hill; investigators continue to collect evidence. A candlelight vigil was held in her memory; her children are ages 7 to 18.

If anyone knew Shakeira’s movements between November 11 and November 18, or has information about the storage unit at 2400 Wiggins Road, please come forward.
