Lyberdee Cisneros, 24, was shot and killed in her Salt Lake City apartment on the evening of September 25, 2022. Family described her as vibrant, with an infectious smile and a loud, joyful laugh. Hours earlier she had told her sister she planned to leave a two-year relationship she described as abusive and intended to rebuild a legal case against her boyfriend to prevent further harm.

Officers responded to a report of a woman shot at the Downtown West Liberty Apartments. Paramedics transported Lyberdee to a hospital after she was found on the apartment floor with multiple gunshot wounds; she later died. Her 20-year-old boyfriend, Jayden Fernelius, was in the apartment with what officers noted as significant amounts of blood on his hands and clothing and a 9mm handgun in his possession. Fernelius gave conflicting accounts, including that he had been outside when he heard a gunshot and that Lyberdee had shot herself. The wounds were not consistent with self-infliction, and Fernelius was arrested and charged with first-degree murder.

Does anyone have information about Lyberdee, the Downtown West Liberty Apartments, or the night of September 25 that could help clarify what happened?
