Statements
Trudy Anne Ellison (English)
Trudy Anne Monk (née Ellison) was a recurring character and the catalyst of the entire series. (English)
1962
Trudy Monk was born in Los Angeles in 1962, to Dwight and Marcia Ellison. She attended the Ashton Preparatory School on a scholarship and graduated valedictorian in 1977, at the age of 15. Her best friend, Arleen Cassidy, went on to become headmaster of their school. ("Mr. Monk Goes Back to School") (English)
14 December 1997
On December 14, 1997, inside the garage, Trudy was alarmed to see someone advancing on her, and ran to her car, not knowing that a bomb had been planted under the passenger seat - ten pounds of plastic explosive, powered by ten 20-volt magnesium batteries, detonated remotely with a cellular phone, triggered by criminal Frank Nunn, who watched Trudy enter her car from above. ("Mr. Monk and the End, Part 1") \ Mortally wounded, Trudy lingered for approximately twenty minutes after the bomb went off. ("Mr. Monk Can't See a Thing") According to the coroner's inquest, her last words were "bread and butter." (English)

Statements for manner of death should have at least one reference.
She was the wife of Adrian Monk. Adrian loved her dearly, and after she was killed in a car bomb, Monk was left "emotionally paralyzed". Trudy's murder was Adrian's only unsolved case, and was the overarching mystery of the series. (English)
Trudy Ellison met Adrian Monk while he was working at the university library. During this encounter, a young man approached them, flirted with Trudy, and asked for her phone number. As he wrote out her number using Monk's back as a support, Adrian was able to visualize and memorize the phone number. Adrian would later say that picking up the phone and calling her was the bravest, most frightening thing he ever did in his life. ("Mr. Monk and the Class Reunion") \ The two began dating, fell in love, and married on August 8, 1990. (English)
