Eliud Montoya was 41 when he was found shot to death near his Garden City home on August 19, 2017. A tree trimmer and naturalized American citizen working in the Savannah area, Montoya had filed a formal complaint with the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission two days before his killing, alleging his supervisor was skimming wages from undocumented workers as part of a long-running labor trafficking scheme.

Investigators described the slaying as execution-style and concluded it was a planned murder-for-hire intended to silence Montoya. Authorities identified three men as primary suspects: Pablo Rangel-Rubio, accused of arranging the killing in retaliation for the complaint; his brother Juan Rangel-Rubio, alleged to be the shooter; and Higinio Perez-Bravo, accused of driving the getaway vehicle. The case involved multiple agencies, including the FBI and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

If anyone knew Montoya, his work, or saw suspicious activity around his home in Garden City in August 2017, please share what you remember.
