On January 15, 2012 in Fresno, California, 17-month-old Aliyah Alessandra Echeverria was killed during a shooting carried out by her mother, Aide Mendez. Aliyah and her three-year-old brother Isaiah were found dead in the bathtub of their apartment; their cousin Paul Medina was also killed. Mendez critically wounded her husband, Eduardo Lopez, and was found dead on the bathroom floor.

Investigators reported Mendez had been using methamphetamine for several days and had videotaped herself smoking methamphetamine just hours before the killings. The case drew attention to methamphetamine abuse in Fresno and the Central Valley and its association with extreme violence.

If anyone knew Aliyah or has information about the circumstances that led to this family tragedy, please share what you know.
