Evelio Federico Gainza, a 63-year-old Cuban man, was found dead in his Miami-Dade home on September 27, 2018, after police responded to a welfare check at his residence on Southwest 161st Street and Southwest 141st Avenue. Officers discovered a broken sliding glass door and Gainza’s body hidden under towels and blankets in a bedroom. An autopsy found he died from multiple gunshot wounds to the back.

Police allegations and arrests describe a sequence of events beginning September 24, 2018, when Gainza picked up his daughter to retrieve items from the home. Authorities say his 17-year-old daughter, Eveline Gainza, later stole his car to pick up 19-year-old Demar Turruellas. Turruellas was charged with second-degree murder and other offenses; Eveline was charged with accessory after the fact and tampering with physical evidence. Police reports state both confessed and that family disapproval of the relationship was believed to be the motive.

Does anyone have additional information about Evelio Gainza, his daughter Eveline, or Demar Turruellas that could help clarify the timeline or motive?
