Brian James Lee Yoder, 41, was found shot to death on La Cuesta Court in Salinas on the evening of May 11, 2016, alongside another man, Daniel Ramirez Jr. Yoder was a Salinas native, born November 30, 1974, and known locally as an artist and sculptor who worked on public bronzes including American Graffiti in Modesto, the 3 firemen from 9-11 in Stockton, and the Cowboy at the Salinas Rodeo Grounds.

Neither victim was known to be involved with gangs or criminal activity. Despite extensive investigation by the Salinas Police Department and interviews with family and witnesses, no arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved. Brian is survived by his two sons, Brandon and Aiden, and his death left a lasting impact on his community.

Does anyone have information about Brian, Daniel, or the events on La Cuesta Court that night?
