Osvaldo Chevy Renteria was 17 and from Odessa, Texas when he was shot on May 16, 2020 after a drug deal at Jackson Square Apartments turned violent. As he ran away, Desmond Tuggle, then 23 and also from Odessa, shot Renteria in the back. Renteria lost a significant amount of blood and died several hours later at the hospital.

Reports say Tuggle was arrested and later confessed, characterizing his actions as a fight or flight reaction. Barrera was arrested and charged in connection with the shooting but later testified against Tuggle. The community in Odessa remembered Renteria for his bright smile and outgoing personality.

Are there readers who knew Osvaldo or who have information about what happened that night?
