Maria Antonieta Soroa, 53, was shot and killed at her home in El Paso’s Lower Valley on September 4, 2021. The shooting occurred during an argument with her son-in-law, Juan Antonio Rodriguez, then 30, reportedly over his plans to separate from Soroa’s daughter. Witnesses said Rodriguez, known to carry a handgun, became agitated, produced the firearm and shot Soroa multiple times at close range; they later took the gun from him.

Rodriguez was arrested and booked into the El Paso County Detention Facility on a $1 million bond and charged with murder. The case drew attention because it happened inside a family and raised questions about domestic conflict and violence.

Does anyone have information about the events that led up to that night or knew the family and can help fill in what happened?
