Margarita Natividad, 28 and Hispanic, was fatally shot outside an apartment complex near the Medical Center in San Antonio on July 22, 2016. She had intervened in an altercation between James Edward Striblin and his wife, Priscilla Cueva, and was shot while trying to protect Cueva from being beaten.

Prosecutors said Striblin was angry that his wife had gone out with Margarita; Striblin later claimed he acted in self-defense, saying Margarita had pulled a gun on Cueva. Striblin was arrested on July 27, 2016, and in November 2017 was found guilty of murder. He received two life terms, one for Margarita’s murder and one for violating probation on a drug charge. The court rejected the self-defense claim.

Margarita’s family and friends remembered her as kind, respectful, and deeply loved. If anyone knew her or witnessed the events around the Medical Center on July 22, 2016, please share information.
