On January 8, 2015, Jesse Contreras, a 51-year-old Hispanic man, was one of three people murdered at Immaculate Auto Sales, a family-owned dealership in north Houston. The other victims were his brother Tony Contreras, 60, and Tony’s son Casey Contreras, 22. All three were shot by James Tinsley, identified by surveillance footage and by a confession to his girlfriend after the attack.

After the shootings, Tinsley attempted to set the dealership on fire but did not succeed. He was charged with capital murder and later sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.In addition to the immediate loss, the case drew wide attention and prompted discussion about security at small businesses and the risks owners can face from disgruntled customers.

Jesse and his family were remembered for their dedication to family and the business.Does anyone have memories of the Contreras family or information about that day that could add to the record?
