Louise Wilson was 17 when she was found dead in her family home in Houston on December 10, 2023. Her mother discovered her after returning from work and called emergency services; first responders pronounced Louise dead at the scene. An initial examination indicated signs of foul play and the Houston Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

Investigators interviewed family, friends, and neighbors, reviewed neighborhood surveillance, and forensics processed the scene. Authorities identified a 19-year-old male acquaintance as a suspect; police say digital communications and forensic findings linked him to the crime. He was arrested and charged with Louise Wilson’s murder on December 20, 2023, and is being held without bail awaiting trial. Motive is under investigation but is believed to stem from a personal dispute.

Louise’s family and community describe her as bright and compassionate, and vigils were held in her memory. If anyone has information about Louise’s last movements or the events leading to December 10, please share what is known with Houston police.
