Nineteen-year-old Troy Doua Lee Wilcox was found dead from a gunshot wound to the head in his Wausau, Wisconsin home on the afternoon of Friday, June 7, 2019. A family member discovered his body, and the case was investigated as a homicide. Troy, a recent graduate of Wausau East High School, was remembered as a devoted son and brother who loved football and fishing.

Investigators focused on 18-year-old David Anselmo of Weston, who had been with Troy and other friends in the hours before the shooting. Witnesses said the group had been drinking. Police later located and arrested Anselmo; the Wausau Police Department recommended a charge of second-degree reckless homicide and he was held in the Marathon County Jail. Anselmo pleaded not guilty in October 2019 and said the shooting was accidental, describing a handgun being passed around and a single round remaining in the chamber when his hand slipped as he pulled the slide back.

The legal process continued beyond the shooting and the investigation produced plea negotiations; the outcome of those proceedings is part of the case history. If anyone knew Troy, his activities that day, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
