Christine Patrice Medina, 37, was fatally shot outside her home on 1st Street in central Bakersfield on the evening of August 12, 2022. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Her death came weeks after her mother Patricia’s death from lung cancer, adding to the family’s grief.

Christine’s 15-year-old daughter, Layla Lozano, and her sister, Nichole Medina, described the loss as sudden and devastating and said Christine was a unique, irreplaceable presence in their lives.
