Adamari Ramirez was 19 and a mother to a five-month-old daughter when she was shot and killed outside her Las Vegas apartment complex on North Nellis Boulevard in the early morning hours of June 3, 2023. In the days before her death she had been making plans to move to California to live with her father and escape a violent relationship with her ex-boyfriend, 23-year-old Israel Zamora. Relatives described repeated domestic violence during their two-year relationship and said Zamora had threatened to shoot her more than once.

Police say Adamari and her mother had just arrived and were parking shortly before 1:15 a.m. when Zamora approached and began arguing with her. He allegedly shot her once in the chest and drove away; she was pronounced dead at the scene and the coroner confirmed a gunshot wound to the chest as the cause of death. Zamora was identified as the suspect, was at large for almost two weeks, then surrendered to authorities on June 16. A criminal complaint filed June 20 charged him with open murder and assault with a deadly weapon; he was held without bail and communicated via a sign language interpreter in court.

Does anyone have information about Adamari’s plans to leave Las Vegas or about the days leading up to June 3?
