Isabel Ortiz, 34, was fatally shot at home in the 300 block of South Hills Street in El Paso on December 16, 2022. The shooting followed an argument with her 17-year-old son, Juan Ortiz. Isabel was taken to University Medical Center of El Paso and died shortly after arrival.

Juan Ortiz fled but was arrested two days later at the Paso Del Norte port of entry while attempting to cross into the U.S. from Juárez. He has been charged with murder and is being held at the El Paso County Jail on a $750,000 bond; homicide detectives with the Crimes Against Persons Unit are investigating.

Isabel is remembered by her parents, siblings, and children; the family has spoken publicly about their grief. What details about the incident or the weeks before December 16 might help clarify what happened that afternoon?
