Esmeralda Martinez, 18, was found dead in her bed at 7320 Holtcamp in Houston on March 20, 2016. Houston Fire Department paramedics pronounced her deceased at about 12:15 p.m., and multiple gunshot wounds were listed as the cause of death. She lived at the address with her boyfriend, 28-year-old Johnathon Sanchez, who was not present when her mother returned at 12:15 p.m. that day; neighbors alerted emergency responders after learning what had happened.

Investigators linked Sanchez to an unrelated officer-involved shooting that morning at about 9:30 a.m. at 200 South 70th Street; he was charged in that incident with two counts of aggravated assault of a public servant and was later apprehended and held in the Harris County jail. On October 17, 2016, murder charges were filed against Sanchez in the 184th State District Court for Esmeralda’s death.

Who knew Esmeralda or her routine at the Holtcamp residence and can share details that might shed light on what happened that morning?
