According to the St. Louis County Police, Ivy was driving Williams' vehicle at the time of his Dec. 22 arrest, which had personal items that belonged to Williams along with “blood and biological material.” He admitted to killing Williams during a post-Miranda interview with detectives of the Racine Police Department, police said.

“The defendant further admitted to having a physical altercation with Williams, which resulted in her death. He then admitted to disposing of her body in an unknown location,” the news release stated.

Bagley remembered Williams as someone who “was very, very sweet, calm and nice” during her interview with KDSK.

“She loved her kids and we all loved being around her. My niece was so excited about Christmas and really looking forward to celebrating the holiday with us and her four children,” she added.
