Patricia Fowler was 21 when she was killed by gunfire in Ypsilanti, Michigan, on November 30, 2022. Her body was later found inside the trunk of a car that had been set on fire in Detroit, prompting a Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office homicide investigation.

Investigators arrested Patricia’s 23-year-old fiancé, Asante Lee Wright, and charged him with open murder and carrying a firearm. During Wright’s trial, testimony said he began a new romantic relationship on the same day Patricia was killed. In March 2024 a jury found him guilty of second-degree murder, and in May 2024 he was sentenced to 37 to 60 years in prison; he declined to speak at sentencing.

Authorities also identified a second suspect, 28-year-old Bashid Bristol-Davis of Belleville, who has a prior record including convictions tied to gun store break-ins and nearly 20 months served. As of May 2023 Bristol-Davis remained at large; the U.S. Marshals Service is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to his arrest and can be contacted at (866) 865-8477, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-Speak-Up.

If anyone knew Patricia or has information about Bristol-Davis’s whereabouts, please come forward with tips.
