Brian Trotter was 25 and an aspiring rapper known as Kent Won’t Stop. He was last seen leaving his home in Triangle, Virginia, on October 17, 2020, with a friend of more than a decade, Robert Deupree Avery Coltrain. His family reported him missing that same day and a social media campaign followed.

On October 25, 2020, Florida Highway Patrol officers responding to a single-vehicle crash in Miami searched the car after detecting a foul odor and flies. They found Trotter’s body wrapped in fabric in the trunk; an autopsy determined he died of multiple gunshot wounds and the Miami-Dade Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide. Coltrain, then 25, was arrested at the scene and initially charged in Florida with second-degree murder and illegal transportation of human remains. Virginia authorities later charged Coltrain in Prince William County after investigators determined the killing occurred there.

The motive for the killing was not made clear in reports. Does anyone have information about Brian’s last known movements in Triangle or the relationship between Brian and the friend who drove him to Florida?
