Rashad Trice admits to killing 2-year-old by strangling.

It was a tragic and heartbreaking case that shook the entire community. Rashad Trice, a man from Michigan, admitted to kidnapping and causing the death of his former girlfriend's two-year-old daughter in 2023. The details of the case were revealed in a plea agreement, where Trice pleaded guilty to a federal charge of kidnapping resulting in death. He was facing a potential life sentence, with his trial scheduled for July.

According to People, who reviewed the plea agreement, Trice confessed to abducting the young girl in a Chevrolet Impala and driving towards Detroit. In a chilling revelation, he admitted to playing a YouTube video in an attempt to calm the child before using a phone cord to strangle her to death.

The events unfolded on July 2, 2023, at around 11:19 p.m., when Trice's ex-girlfriend contacted the authorities to report a violent altercation between them. The criminal complaint, filed on July 7, revealed that the woman had stabbed Trice in self-defense before escaping to her mother's apartment in the same complex. She had been stabbed multiple times and sexually assaulted by Trice. Unfortunately, she had to leave behind her two-year-old daughter, Wynter Cole-Smith, and one-year-old son.

When the police arrived, they discovered that Trice and Wynter were missing. U.S. Attorney Mark Totten released a statement, acknowledging the devastating nature of the case. He said, "What happened is truly heartbreaking, but today marks an important step forward as we seek justice for Wynter Cole-Smith's family and the people of Michigan." He also expressed his gratitude towards the law enforcement agencies involved in the case, including the FBI Michigan and the Lansing Police Department. He stated, "I'm incredibly grateful for their collaborative efforts and the more than two dozen other local, state, and federal partners who came running to help."

Trice was arrested on July 3, 2023, after he was spotted without the child. Unfortunately, Wynter's body was discovered days later near Detroit's Coleman A. Young International Airport. Attorney Totten is determined to seek justice for the family of the child and the people of Michigan. However, the ex-girlfriend's name remains undisclosed.
