A domestic dispute in Phoenix ended in fatal violence when 36-year-old Jesus Nevarez-Galindo was shot and killed in his home. The incident began with a verbal argument between Nevarez-Galindo and his 30-year-old wife, Amanda Lynn Miller, reportedly over money and a shortage of food. The conflict escalated after Miller allegedly threw a plate of potatoes, and Nevarez-Galindo reportedly set papers on fire on the stove.

Responding officers’ accounts say Miller retrieved a 9mm handgun from the bedroom and, asserting that her husband was blocking her path in the hallway, opened fire. Nevarez-Galindo was struck at least seven times in the back and neck and was found face down; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Miller was arrested and charged with second-degree murder; court records note a history of domestic violence between the couple.

Does anyone have information about the couple’s recent history or witnessed the incident that night?
