On April 30, 2023, a shooting at a residence on H Street in Mojave, California left four people dead, including 31-year-old Darius Travon Canada. Deputies from the Kern County Sheriff’s Office found the victims with gunshot wounds to the upper body; three, including Canada, were pronounced dead at the scene and a fourth died later at a hospital. The other victims were 34-year-old Anna Marie Hester and 33-year-old Martina Barraza, both of Mojave, and 20-year-old Faith Leighanne Rose Asbury of California City.

Investigators launched an extensive probe and by July 2023 the Kern Secret Witness Program offered up to a $10,000 reward for information leading to arrests and successful prosecution. Court filings made public by August 2024 linked two men to the case: Ricardo Reyes, who had been arrested and booked without bail, and Jonathan Hernandez, for whom a warrant had been issued, with allegations that Reyes carried out the shootings and Hernandez provided the firearm.

What information can anyone share that might help piece together the events on H Street that night?
