Corey Duane Childress, 30, of Fresno, California, died after being found in a car that had crashed into a home on East Saginaw Way on March 20, 2022. He had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to Community Regional Medical Center, where he died. Authorities described the event as the result of a violent confrontation.

Investigators identified 22-year-old Anthony Munoz as the primary suspect and located him in an apartment on North Ninth Street. Munoz initially refused to surrender but was taken into custody by the Fresno Police Department’s Crisis Negotiations Team; a 9mm semi-automatic firearm was seized from his apartment, though it was reported to be unrelated to the shooting. Munoz was charged with murder, two counts of shooting into an inhabited dwelling, and illegal possession of a firearm.

Court proceedings ended with a plea deal in which Munoz was sentenced to ten years in prison for manslaughter with a gun enhancement. Childress’s family protested the sentence at the hearing, saying Munoz showed no remorse.

Does anyone have information about Corey’s final movements on March 20, 2022, or about the confrontation that led to the shooting?
