Leticia Cortez, 20, of Sarasota, Florida, died on July 30, 2017, after being shot while having dinner with her family at their home. The bullet struck Leticia; she was taken to Sarasota Memorial Hospital and later died of her injuries.
The Sarasota Police Department investigated and concluded the shooting was accidental but charged Daniel Cortez-Reyez with manslaughter, saying his negligent handling of the weapon caused Leticia’s death. He was arrested and held at the Sarasota County Jail without bond. The investigation reportedly found no indication of foul play beyond the accidental shooting.
Does anyone have information about the night of July 30, 2017, or details about the handling and storage of the firearm involved?
