Details of Disappearance
Williams was last seen in Columbus, Ohio on September 16, 1992. She had a four-month-old daughter at the time; the baby's father was incarcerated and had never met his daughter. A released inmate contacted Williams and offered to take her and her child to visit the child's father in jail.

The next day, the man returned to Williams's home with the baby, but without Williams. He said Williams had gone to use a pay phone and never came back, and he didn't know where she was. She has never been heard from again.

Foul play is suspected in Williams's case. She had been a good student at Whetstone High School and played basketball there. Her family moved to the south side of Columbus and Williams transferred to South High School. She had a job at a Taco Bell restaurant at the time of her disappearance. Her mother describes her as bookish and naive, and her family doesn't believe she would have abandoned her daughter.

It's possible that a love triangle was behind Williams's disappearance; a man she knew was very jealous and had even threatened her life. Authorities have a suspect in her case who has never been charged, and the man she was with on the day she disappeared is now deceased. Her case remains unsolved.

The daughter is incredibly public now about her opinions on this case.

If what she has been told by law enforcement is true, this is a wild case.

I hope the family gets some closure soon. Where could he have taken her?

Trinia Williams​

Williams was last seen in Columbus on Sept. 16, 1992, when she was 18 years old. Williams had a 4-month-old daughter at the time, whose father was incarcerated and had never met her, according to The Charley Project.

A former inmate who knew William’s baby’s father contacted her and offered to take her baby to visit her father in jail. On the day she was last seen, the man picked up Williams and her child from a Columbus residence. The next day, he returned and gave the baby to a family member, but Williams was nowhere to be found. He claimed she had gone to use a pay phone and never came back, according to The Charley Project. The man she was with the day she went missing is now dead. Friends and family have never heard from her again.

Today, Williams would be 50 years old.
