Jordan Valero, 19, of Bonita Springs, Florida, was found dead in his home on July 10, 2016, after deputies answered reports of multiple gunshots at 10700 Goodwin Street in the early morning hours. Valero had spent the evening watching a UFC fight with friends and was later targeted and shot multiple times inside his residence.

The Lee County Sheriff’s Office investigated for nearly two years, concluding investigators believed Valero was specifically targeted. On April 3, 2018, two men were arrested in connection with the killing: Arturo Gonzalez, 25, charged with Second Degree Murder and Armed Burglary, and Kevin Guzman, 19, charged with Second Degree Murder, Armed Burglary and, additionally, Conspiracy to Commit Robbery. Cellphone records obtained by warrant and testimony from seven witnesses were cited as part of the prosecution’s case. Guzman’s defense challenged jurisdiction because he was 17 when the crime occurred; the judge ruled the court had jurisdiction.

Valero’s family remained closely involved with investigators and attended the suspects’ first court appearance; they described feeling a measure of relief after the arrests. Anyone with information about the case or who knew Jordan is asked to come forward.
