Once again, we are confronted with the horrifying reality of violent crime in our cities. This time, it’s a chilling murder in downtown Seattle that has shaken the community to its core.
As reported by KIRO News, Rickesha Overton, a 33-year-old woman, mercilessly killed Alisia DeCoteau, a young mother of only 20 years old. The gruesome act took place in an alley behind the Ellis Court Apartments, where Overton forcefully dragged DeCoteau from the third floor.
The horrifying incident occurred on March 3, shortly after 1 A.M. It was journalist Jonathan Choe who leaked the disturbing video footage of the crime.
The footage reveals a terrified DeCoteau being forced down a flight of stairs by Overton, who had a gun pressed against her head. Overton can be heard threatening DeCoteau, saying, “I’ll blow your mouth! Say I won’t! Say I won’t!”
After pushing DeCoteau into the alley, Overton briefly disappears before returning to shoot her twice at close range.
Overton then attempts to fire more shots but cannot do so due to running out of ammunition. What follows next is a horrifying display of brutality as she kicks and screams at DeCoteau’s lifeless body.

This isn’t Overton’s first involvement in a violent incident with DeCoteau. Police records reveal that they were called to the same apartment building earlier this year on January 1, where Overton was arrested for assaulting DeCoteau.
Overton now faces charges of first-degree murder and second-degree assault. Her bail is set at a staggering $5,000,000.
DeCoteau’s tragic death leaves behind her one-year-old daughter Mariah, who is now under the care of her older sister Jessica Ceja.
