John Paul Jimenez, 42, of Odessa, Texas, was shot and killed on August 15, 2018, in the 900 block of Magnolia Boulevard while helping a friend, Jimmy White, unload furniture. Both Jimenez and White were struck when 20-year-old Jose Alexander Carrera approached and opened fire; White survived but Jimenez later died of his injuries.

Court filings indicate Carrera was indicted by an Ector County grand jury for Jimenez’s murder. Reports at the time noted the possibility that Carrera and Jimenez had been involved with the same woman, which was presented as a potential motive. Jimenez is remembered by family and friends as a hard-working man who loved his children, working on his truck, and listening to country music.
