Aliciabelen Villa was 17 and from Oakley, California. She was shot and killed on November 5, 2019, in Antioch around 7:10 p.m. near Morro Drive and La Jolla Drive. Known as A.B., she was with her 17-year-old boyfriend during a reported minor drug transaction that escalated into an argument with two 16-year-old boys they were meeting.

As the boyfriend tried to drive away the second boy opened fire, striking Aliciabelen in the head and wounding her boyfriend in the shoulder. The boyfriend drove them to Kaiser Antioch Medical Center, where Aliciabelen was pronounced dead in the emergency room.

Two 16-year-old suspects were arrested and charged with murder; Jose Campos was identified as the primary suspect and was arrested after a search of his home turned up 15 guns, and Julian Martinez was accused of pulling out a pistol during the argument. The case moved through juvenile court, and Jose Campos later pleaded no contest to second-degree murder. Aliciabelen’s mother had died of cancer weeks earlier, and the community raised funds to help with funeral expenses.
