Joseph Rodriguez was 26 and living on the East Side of San Antonio when he was shot and killed inside his home in the early hours of February 17, 2017. The shooting occurred about 4:00 a.m. while Rodriguez was sleeping in bed with his wife and four children. Family accounts say a 7-year-old grandson heard noises outside and Rodriguez went to investigate; investigators believe a man forced his way into the house and fired several shots, striking Rodriguez once in the head.

Rodriguez performed as Giuseppe the Boss and was active in the local rap scene. The San Antonio Police Department opened a homicide investigation but made no immediate arrests. The community organized a benefit to support his family, and Rodriguez’s father urged anyone with information to come forward. The investigation is ongoing.

Did anyone in the community know Joseph’s movements that night or see suspicious activity near his home?
