On October 15, 2016, 18-year-old Jackelyne Padilla and 48-year-old Carlos Rendon were found dead from apparent gunshot wounds at a residence in the 5800 block of South Swinging A in Tucson. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department responded after a call about an unknown problem and investigators treated the scene as a double homicide.

Detectives developed a suspect through witness interviews: 49-year-old Raymond Manny Valencia, described as a Hispanic male with distinctive neck and arm tattoos. Investigators warned he was likely armed and dangerous and believed he was driving a white Ford Ranger marked with Gila Pool Service placards. Valencia was later apprehended and charged in connection with the killings.
