Trisha Mills Carnley, 44, of Texarkana, Arkansas, was reported missing on the morning of June 21, 2021, after family members could not reach her. Deputies who first checked her home on Miller County Road 10 found the house secured and received no answer. Later that afternoon, around 1:30 p.m., investigators and family forced entry and discovered Trisha’s body inside the residence.

Preliminary findings indicated a single gunshot wound, and authorities treated her death as a homicide. Suspicion focused on her husband, 54-year-old Curtis Jay Carnley. Family members who had been at a barbecue at the Carnley home on June 20 said Curtis had been highly intoxicated and involved in an argument with Trisha. A first-degree murder warrant for Curtis was issued June 22, 2021; he was arrested that day and initially held without bond. Bond was later set at $250,000 with conditions including residence with his sister and no contact with Trisha’s family; he was re-arrested in November after returning to the property.

Does anyone have information about Trisha’s last day, the barbecue on June 20, or movements around the Miller County Road 10 property?
