On the evening of July 19, 2025, 9-year-old Alexia Garcia was among three people killed by gunfire inside an apartment on Hillcrest Lane Northeast in Renton, Washington. Alexia, described as a sweet, funny child who liked making TikTok videos, collecting stuffed animals and snuggling with her cat, was found shot twice in the head along with her 46-year-old mother, Darcey Moore, and her 39-year-old aunt, Jamie Lee Ray. Two other people in the apartment escaped unharmed and provided information to police.

A 46-year-old man, Steve Vasquez, who had been dating Moore for about a month, was arrested the next day in south Seattle and charged with aggravated first-degree murder in the slayings. Investigators say the deaths were tied to domestic violence. Home video from Moore’s bedroom recorded about an hour before police were called shows Vasquez handling a handgun and then turning the camera away.

Vasquez pleaded not guilty and bail was set at $10 million; authorities say the motive remains under investigation. Did anyone in the Renton area know Alexia or have information about that July evening that could help investigators?
