Ivan Reyes, a 31-year-old Hispanic man from Brownsville, Texas, was killed on June 4, 2014 during a deadly standoff at a home on Orchid Path. The confrontation arose from a love triangle involving Reyes, Marco Antonio Gonzalez, and Monica Robles. Gonzalez, a coworker of Reyes at the Cameron County jail, drove to Robles’s house and fatally shot Reyes. Gonzalez later claimed he acted in self-defense because he believed Reyes was armed; prosecutors described the shooting as motivated by jealousy and an intent to kill.

The standoff lasted about eight hours, during which Gonzalez held Robles hostage. Police arrived and Gonzalez shot himself but survived; Reyes was found dead inside the house. Gonzalez was charged with capital murder and faced trial. Reyes’s family, including his brother Milton Reyes, said they were devastated and wanted answers about why Ivan had been at the house and why he was shot.
