Rylee Goodrich, 18, of Corona, California, was shot and killed while attending a July 26, 2021 screening of The Forever Purge at the Regal Edwards Corona Crossings theater. She and a friend, Anthony Barajas, were both shot by Joseph Jimenez Jr.; Goodrich was pronounced dead at the scene and Barajas died a few days later. The attack was described as random and unprovoked, and Jimenez later said he was experiencing schizophrenia and hearing voices that led to the killings.

Jimenez was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstance allegations of lying in wait and taking multiple lives. A judge found him mentally competent and aware of his actions; in February 2024 he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Goodrich, a marketing major who had a full-ride scholarship, was remembered by family and friends as bright, compassionate, and accomplished academically and athletically. The families have focused on honoring the victims’ legacies through various initiatives and acts of kindness.
