Ashley Sena, 31, was found dead in a Roswell hotel room on August 4, 2017, after suffering a single gunshot wound to the face. Staff at the Comfort Suites on North Main Street discovered her that afternoon and the Roswell Police Department confirmed her death was a homicide.

Investigators focused on Sena’s boyfriend, 35-year-old Jeremy Hawkins of Roswell. Authorities believe Hawkins shot Sena during an argument; an arrest warrant was issued for open-count murder on August 18, 2017, along with charges of tampering with evidence, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and two counts of intimidation of a witness. Investigators say Hawkins disposed of the firearm and threatened two people connected to the case. U.S. Marshals arrested Hawkins in Albuquerque on August 19.

A second man, 29-year-old Frank Moss, was later implicated. A warrant dated August 21 charged him with tampering with evidence, intimidation of a witness, and being a felon in possession of a handgun. Moss is alleged to have gone to the hotel room after the shooting to collect Hawkins’ belongings and to have threatened a potential witness while armed. Did anyone in Roswell know Ashley or have information about her last days?
