Janessa Izeth Del Valle, 19, of Bonita, California, was fatally shot on July 4, 2020, in the parking lot of an apartment complex on Briarwood Road south of state Route 54. Janessa and her 13-year-old sister had left their apartment to confront people who had been cyberbullying the younger girl. They expected to meet two girls but instead encountered a car carrying four people; a fight broke out and Janessa was shot. Her sister was also attacked during the altercation.

The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department investigated the killing and asked witnesses to come forward. Janessa’s mother, Diana Del Valle, publicly warned about the dangers of cyberbullying and the family created a memorial at the shooting site. The family has urged anyone with information to contact investigators. Does anyone have information about that night or recall seeing activity near the Briarwood Road apartments on July 4, 2020?
