Kiva Tiliya Herrera, a 38-year-old Hispanic woman, was murdered on August 11, 2019, in the parking lot of the Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Sugar Land, Texas. The killing followed a confrontation with her ex-boyfriend, 44-year-old Sheldon Magee; witnesses saw the two struggling in the parking lot before the shooting. Herrera was found with a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Magee was arrested at the scene after an exchange of gunfire with police and was charged with murder and attempted murder of a peace officer. The case drew attention to Herrera’s efforts to leave an abusive relationship and raised broader concerns about domestic violence in the community.
