Matthew Gerald Misener, 35, was shot and killed in the pre-dawn hours of February 10, 2020, while driving his black Chevrolet Tahoe on U.S. Highway 191 between Clifton and Morenci. His vehicle was found on the Horseshoe Curve just before 5 a.m.; initial responders first treated the scene as a crash, but other responders discovered the vehicle had been struck by gunfire and Misener died at the scene from gunshot wounds.

Investigation quickly produced leads tying a Tucson vehicle and its owner, 36-year-old Eduardo Montano Jr., to the shooting. Detectives obtained search warrants with assistance from the Pima County Sheriff’s Department and arrested Montano in Tucson. A search of Montano’s residence reportedly turned up a 9mm Ruger with 14 rounds missing. Authorities say the shooting was planned rather than a random act of road rage.

Police also developed a motive connected to a pending custody hearing for Misener’s three children, scheduled the day after the killing. Investigators arrested 33-year-old Georgina Misener in Tucson after electronic communications allegedly showed she provided information to Montano to facilitate an attack intended to prevent Matthew from attending the custody hearing.

Does anyone have information about Matthew’s movements that morning or about contacts between the parties named?
