A violent week in July 2018 terrorized the Houston area and was later tied to Jose Gilberto Rodriguez. After cutting off his ankle monitor, Rodriguez’s spree began July 9 with an armed home invasion in northwest Harris County in which an elderly husband was held at gunpoint, bound, and the couple’s valuables and SUV were stolen. On July 13, 62-year-old widow Pamela Johnson was found tied up and shot to death in her Cypress home; her car was missing.

The next day Allie Barrow, 28, was found fatally shot inside the Mattress Firm where she worked on FM 1960. Surveillance later showed a man matching Rodriguez’s description parking Johnson’s stolen car at Willowbrook Mall, and on July 16 a third person was found shot to death inside a Mattress One store on the North Freeway. Rodriguez was identified from surveillance and other evidence, taken into custody after a car chase on July 17, 2018, and charged with multiple counts of capital murder and aggravated robbery.

Did anyone in the area notice suspicious activity around FM 1960 or Willowbrook Mall that week?
