Manuel Valdez, a 31-year-old resident of Santa Rosa, California, was shot to death inside his home in the early morning hours of June 28, 2021. Valdez’s body was not discovered until nearly two days later, when neighbors who had not seen him for some time alerted authorities and officers found him in his bedroom.

The investigation led to Archer’s arrest and charges including first-degree murder, unlawful possession of a firearm and ammunition, and the unlawful use of a firearm during the commission of the murder. The case went to trial and resulted in a guilty verdict. Archer was sentenced in December 2022 to 50 years to life in state prison.
