On December 30, 1999, Jose Aguilar, 40, was one of five people killed in a mass shooting at the Radisson Bay Harbor Inn in Tampa, Florida. The attack occurred in the afternoon, around 3 p.m., while the hotel was crowded with football fans in town for the New Year’s Day Outback Bowl between Purdue and Georgia.

Other victims named were Eric Pedroso, 29; Barbara Carter, 55; George C. Jones, 44; and Dolores Perdomo, 56. Izquierdo-Leyva was apprehended shortly after the shooting and later charged with five counts of first-degree murder; he was convicted and sentenced to life without parole on April 15, 2002. The motive remains unknown.

Did anyone who was at the hotel that day or who knew Jose have details to share about him or the events that afternoon?
