DETROIT - The U.S. Marshals Service Detroit Fugitive Apprehension Team is requesting the public's assistance nationwide with the location of a woman wanted for the brutal murder of her boyfriend in Melvindale, Mich., on or about Sept. 29.

The 24th District Court issued a felony warrant was against Tamera Renee Williams, 39, on Dec. 20, for first-degree homicide, disinterring a dead body, and tampering with evidence following the murder of David Carter, 39.

U.S. Marshals believe Williams fled the state in mid-October and has not been seen or heard from since she was identified as a person of interest.

Williams has worked in the medical field and as a travel agent. She is known to be a world traveler and has ties throughout the United States.

Williams also has close involvement with the Order of the Eastern Star. She should be considered armed and dangerous.

U.S. Marshal's New Hampshire District was requested to disseminate the alert today.

Any information can be provided to the U.S. Marshals 24-hour tip line at 313-234-5600 or via email at usms.wanted@usdoj.gov
