Meisha Williams, 30, a traveling nurse described by a cousin as kind and nurturing, was found shot to death on the bathroom floor of her luxury apartment at 55 Clinton Place in downtown New Rochelle on the morning of Saturday, August 24, 2024. Police were called at approximately 10:13 a.m.; she had been shot twice in the back.

Investigators quickly identified her longtime boyfriend, 28-year-old Robert Wooten, as the suspected shooter. A multiagency effort using license plate readers tracked his vehicle to Queens, where he was arrested that evening and taken to the Westchester County Jail. The firearm used in the shooting was not recovered. The investigation revealed prior violence between the couple, including an incident in May 2024 in Reston, Virginia, when Williams was arrested and charged with malicious wounding for allegedly stabbing Wooten.

If anyone knew Meisha, her living situations, or has information about the events that morning, please share what can help the investigation.
