On the night of May 15, 2017, 39-year-old Genaro Rojas-Martinez finished his restaurant shift in Smyrna, Georgia, and stopped at a Texaco on South Cobb Drive. After paying inside the convenience store around 11 p.m., he returned to his vehicle and was approached from behind by a man who shot him once in the back of the head. The shooter fled in a green Chevrolet Avalanche. Rojas-Martinez, a husband and father of three daughters, was left dying at the scene.

Smyrna police released surveillance images of the getaway vehicle; a tip from the vehicle’s owner led investigators to 37-year-old Joseph Priester of Thomaston, Georgia. Priester was a convicted felon with an outstanding parole-violation warrant and had reportedly waited hours outside Rojas-Martinez’s workplace before following him to the gas station. U.S. Marshals apprehended Priester a few days later in New Jersey, and he was extradited to Georgia to face charges including malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Priester was convicted by a Cobb County jury in September 2018 and sentenced to life without parole plus five years.

Did anyone who knew Genaro or saw him the evening of May 15, 2017, come forward with information?
