LaMonte Dewayne Bush, a 42-year-old African American nightclub owner from Houston, Texas, was shot in the back of the head and killed on June 29, 2018 while standing outside his business. He was speaking to his wife and his 9-year-old daughter, who were inside a parked car, when an assailant approached from behind and fired the fatal shot.

Authorities identified the suspect as 61-year-old Angel Luis Mexico, a Cuban national with a criminal history dating to the 1980s, including a prior capital murder conviction in 1987 and other convictions for violent offenses. Reports say Mexico did not approve of Bush’s past involvement with his adult daughter; that alleged motive was raised during the case. Witnesses testified at trial, including Bush’s then 9-year-old daughter, who identified Mexico in court.

The killing was described by prosecutors as a violent ambush and had a profound effect on Bush’s community. Does anyone have information about LaMonte Bush, his nightclub, or the night of June 29, 2018 that could add detail to the record?
