On March 18, 2023, in Bakersfield, California, 45-year-old Elidia Elizabeth Solis De Mejia and her husband, 50-year-old Cesar Antillon Munoz were found dead at their Lexington Avenue home from gunshot wounds. The Kern County Sheriff’s Office reported a violent assault at the residence and discovered both victims deceased.

Investigators arrested 37-year-old Javier Andrade-Mejia, the ex-partner of Solis De Mejia’s daughter and father of her grandchild. Reports say he left his home armed with an unregistered handgun, went to the victims’ house and shot each victim once in the head. Forensic testing matched shell casings at the scene to the firearm recovered in his possession. Prosecutors said the killing was connected to custody tensions and prior abusive behavior by Andrade-Mejia toward his ex; earlier accusations he made against Munoz were found to be unfounded.

Does anyone in Bakersfield remember seeing or hearing anything unusual on Lexington Avenue that day or know more about the victims’ family connections?
