Joseph Emmanuel Rodriguez was 17 and from San Bernardino, California. He died on October 30, 2016, after being fatally shot. The San Bernardino Police Department opened an investigation into the violent crime, but the inquiry encountered challenges including a lack of witnesses and limited concrete evidence.

Police identified several suspects from the evidence, and the San Bernardino County Superior Courts later handled multiple court hearings connected to the matter. There were no immediate arrests reported at the time of the initial investigation, and the community rallied around Joseph’s family seeking justice.

Anyone with information about Joseph, where he was on October 30, 2016, or who might have been involved is asked to come forward.
