On the morning of November 30, 2010, 19-year-old Jose Antonio Mollinedo of Victorville was found dead on the fifth-floor ramp of the Silverton Casino Hotel parking garage in Las Vegas. The Clark County Coroner ruled the cause of death a gunshot wound to the head and classified the death as a homicide.

Hotel surveillance reportedly shows Mollinedo walking with another man around 9:30 a.m.; the second person is said to have fallen back, produced a firearm and shot Mollinedo in the back of the head, then fled. Investigators identified 20-year-old Westley Casasola, also from California, as the primary suspect and a grand jury returned an indictment charging him with multiple felonies including murder, armed robbery and conspiracy. Authorities believe both men were affiliated with the same Victorville gang and that Casasola may have been ordered to carry out the killing for reasons that remain unknown.

If anyone knew Jose Mollinedo or has information about his movements in Las Vegas that morning, please share what is known.
