On the evening of November 25, 2018, 26-year-old Lisa Vilate Williams was shot and killed inside a Midvale, Utah, apartment while making homemade Christmas ornaments with her boyfriend, Travis Cook, and his three-year-old twin children. Travis Cook wrestled the gun away and held Chelsea Cook until police arrived. Lisa was taken to a local hospital and died of her injuries.

Family statements described months of harassment and online bullying by Chelsea Cook directed at Lisa, and investigators believed jealousy over Lisa’s relationship with Travis Cook and his children motivated the attack. Chelsea Watrous Cook was arrested at the scene and charged. At sentencing Lisa’s family remembered her as kind, sweet, and generous. If anyone knew Lisa, her routines, or saw anything relevant that night, please share information that might help her memory and the children who witnessed this.
