Last October, She Was Shot By Her Husband Who Hid In A Shower And He’s Been On The Run After Making Bond
La Marque, Texas. 30-year-old Savannah Paschal lived in La Marque, and she had 2 young children named Mackenzie and William who were her whole world.
Savannah was a dedicated mom, and for her, nothing came before the needs of Mackenzie or William.
“Savannah enjoyed quality time with her children, playing card and board games, working jigsaw puzzles, baking, spending time with friends and family, and going to the beach,” her obituary reads.
“Savannah’s friends have described her as kind-hearted, compassionate, graceful, a beautiful person inside and out, hard-working, easy to talk to, joyful, inclusive, sweet, friendly, full of love and a ray of sunshine.”
A year before she was murdered, Savannah had started pursuing a career in mortuary science, and she would have graduated from her college program in May of 2021.

On October 21st of 2020, the La Marque Police Department rushed to Savannah’s home on Hawks View Drive after a 911 call came in about a shooting.
Savannah’s mom Shirley met with responding officers and explained to them that Savannah had some kind of incident earlier that day with her estranged husband Trent.
Savannah had driven to school to make sure her children were ok before returning home and meeting her mom there.

Savannah’s mom walked into the bathroom leading off her bedroom, and suddenly, Trent jumped out of the shower.
He had been hiding inside of it, lying in wait, and he had a gun. He threatened to shoot Shirley as well as Savannah, and Shirley was able to close the bathroom door and start running.
Savannah sadly was not able to get away, and Trent shot her. When officers got to Savannah’s bedroom, they found her lying on the floor, bleeding from her stomach.
Although they performed CPR on her until the medics arrived, Savannah passed away at Mainland Medical Center.

“On October 21st, 2020, Savannah Paschal was needlessly gunned down by her estranged husband,” Stephanie Hill wrote on the GoFundMe page created for Savannah and her family.
“Her death is an absolute shock to her family and the community. Her two children and her parents are now left to pick up the pieces.”
“As such, we’d like to rally as a community to help cover as many costs as we can for her parents.”
“This will include, but not be limited to, funeral expenses and expenses that will be needed for the children’s care.”

Authorities eventually caught up with 48-year-old Trent, arresting him and charging him with Savannah’s murder.
Trent was later released on bond, and he was also ordered to wear an ankle monitor. Somehow, he slipped out of it and is now on the run.
If you see Trent, police have asked you to please call 911 and not confront him at all. Below are more photos of him from his mugshots.
