On April 30, 2023, at about 11:20 p.m., 33-year-old Martina Barraza was one of four people fatally shot inside a trailer on H Street in Mojave, California. Barraza, along with 34-year-old Anna Marie Hester and 31-year-old Darius Travon Canada, was pronounced dead at the scene. A fourth victim, 20-year-old Faith Leighanne Rose Asbury of California City, died later at Antelope Valley Hospital.

Investigators identified 34-year-old Ricardo Reyes-Partida as a suspect after witnesses reported seeing him arguing with two of the victims earlier that day and fleeing after the shootings. Ballistic evidence linked shell casings from the Mojave scene to a firearm used in a separate shooting that same day, in which Reyes-Partida was also a suspect. In July 2024 Reyes-Partida was charged with multiple counts, including murder and attempted murder, pleaded not guilty, and is being held without bail pending trial.

Authorities have also issued a warrant for 34-year-old Jonathan Hernandez, who is accused of providing the firearm used in the homicides; he remains at large. Barraza was a mother of five, and a GoFundMe campaign was set up to help with funeral costs and support her children. Has anyone in the Mojave area seen or heard anything that could help investigators locate Hernandez or fill in what happened that night?
