Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said Marvin Williams should be considered armed and dangerous.
He is wanted for the murder of 61-year-old Cassandra Valentin.
Valentin was found dead in her home on Frank E Ave Monday after fire rescue was called for a welfare check.
Family tells Action News Jax that Williams is Valentin's ex.
Action News Jax uncovered a petition for an injunction for protection against domestic violence that Valentin filed against Williams in 2013.
The injunction says he raped her, held her at knife point and beat her.
