On July 19, 2025, three people were found shot to death at Hillcrest Terrace Apartments in Renton, Washington. Victims were 39-year-old Jamie Lee Ray, her sister Darcey Ann Moore, 46, and Moore’s 9-year-old daughter Alexia Garcia. Each had been shot in the head twice. Ray was a mother of eight; siblings described her as one of the strongest women they knew.

Police arrested 46-year-old Steve Vasquez in Burien the day after the killings after tracking a cellphone. Investigators say apartment video shows Vasquez holding a handgun next to Moore before the camera was turned away, the last time she was seen alive. A motive has not been disclosed.

Vasquez has been charged in connection with the three deaths and has pleaded not guilty. The family is mourning and is considering donating to foster care or domestic violence awareness organizations in memory of the victims.

If anyone knew Jamie Lee Ray or has information about the events at Hillcrest Terrace Apartments, please share what you know.
