Pete Andrew Gurule, 40, was found dead from a gunshot wound at the doorway of a residence on Rancho Siringo Road in Santa Fe on January 18, 2021. Officers arrived about 2:18 AM; Edwin Anaya, 33, was encountered near the scene and later arrested and charged with first-degree murder.

Gurule was a well-known local DJ who hosted KSFR’s Friday Nite Mixx Fixx for about twenty years, a seventh-generation New Mexican and a father to two young sons, Quentin and Silas. During the trial, Anaya testified they had spent the evening together using alcohol and marijuana; he said he awoke to an alleged sexual assault, that a fight followed, and that he retrieved a handgun and shot Gurule in what he described as self-defense.

In March 2023 the jury acquitted Anaya of second-degree murder but was unable to reach a unanimous verdict on voluntary manslaughter, producing a mistrial on that count; prosecutors said they would seek a retrial on manslaughter. Does anyone have information about Gurule’s last known movements or about the night of January 18, 2021?
