Elva Gonzalez, 41, was shot and killed on October 30, 2016, in the front yard of her Baytown, Texas home. Her estranged husband, 39-year-old El Rey Gonzalez, carried out the shooting while two of their children, ages 16 and 21, were inside the house. The couple had been separated for several months and Elva had reported fears about his threatening behavior.

El Rey Gonzalez was arrested at the scene and charged with capital murder. He later pleaded guilty in exchange for the state not pursuing the death penalty and was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. Records say he had a prior conviction for sexually assaulting a child in 2005. The Baytown Police Department Homicide Unit and the Harris County District Attorney’s Office handled the investigation.

Elva’s family described her as a loving, caring person who left behind three children. Does anyone who knew Elva or her family have additional information that could shed light on the events leading up to that night?
