Rene Soto, 42, of Amarillo, Texas, was shot and killed on June 17, 2018, while standing in his doorway.

Navarrete fled but was later arrested and charged with Soto’s murder. At trial he admitted shooting Soto and said he acted in self-defense; the jury rejected that claim and found him guilty. The state introduced Navarrete’s prior misdemeanor and felony convictions and a pending aggravated-assault-with-a-deadly-weapon charge from an unrelated incident. Navarrete was sentenced to 70 years in prison.

A Potter County grand jury indicted four other people in connection with Soto’s murder, including Amanda Leann Walker, Chad Edward Walker, and Saul Flores Gallegos; Chad and Amanda Walker were arrested on September 20, 2018. Is there anyone who knew Rene Soto or saw activity around his home in June 2018 who can add useful detail?
