Laithe Miles Marra Sr., 56, of El Paso, Texas, was found dead in his garage on February 20, 2021, with multiple gunshot wounds. Police were initially called about a possible suicide, but the inquiry soon became a homicide investigation. An autopsy determined Marra died from three gunshot wounds to the back and one to the front torso.

Court documents say Marra sent text messages to his son on the night of his death alleging his estranged wife, Leanne Yvonne Mandeville, had pointed a gun at him. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots around the time he was believed to have been shot. U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force officers arrested Mandeville at her home on April 1, 2021, and she was charged with Marra’s murder. Evidence described in the prosecution’s case included bloodstains and a Smith and Wesson revolver identified as the murder weapon.

The case has been framed around a troubled relationship with allegations of alcoholism and frequent arguments. Does anyone have information about Laithe Marra Sr., the neighborhood that night, or details that could help clarify what happened?
