Brenda Ochoa Guerrero, 33, was found dead in the passenger seat of her own vehicle in the Inova Mount Vernon Hospital parking lot at about 10:45 a.m. on April 13, 2023. Responding personnel noted significant trauma to her upper body; an autopsy later attributed her death to a gunshot wound to the upper body. Investigators concluded the shooting occurred elsewhere and traced the location of her death to a residence in the 2500 block of Fairhaven Avenue in Alexandria.

Surveillance footage shows two men parking Ochoa Guerrero’s vehicle at 1:11 a.m. and leaving in a separate SUV. That footage and other investigative work led to the identification of four people. In May, David Littlefield, 43, Eric Thompson, 36, and Yuris Pineda Gallegos, 29, were charged with felony concealment of a body. Authorities say Eric Antonio Rubio, 36, picked up the two men from the hospital lot with Pineda Gallegos as a passenger. In October, Rubio was charged with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, in addition to concealment of a body; he is held at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center.

Anyone with information about Brenda Ochoa Guerrero, the residence on Fairhaven Avenue, or the movements of the vehicles that night is asked to come forward.
