Mayra Karina Portillo-Moreno, 29, was killed at her home on Grandee Avenue in Willowbrook, California, in the early morning of April 21, 2018. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

The couple’s 8-year-old daughter was also hit by a bullet but survived after being taken to the hospital by Rodriguez. Rodriguez was arrested on suspicion of murder and assault with a deadly weapon and charged with murder, assault with a semi-automatic firearm, and two counts of child neglect and abandonment. He initially pleaded not guilty to the charges.

The case drew attention to the consequences of domestic violence and the need for support and intervention. If anyone knew Mayra or has information about the events that night, please share what you know.
