On June 15, 2017, 55-year-old Max Trujillo of La Madera was shot and killed during a multi-location shooting spree that devastated several northern New Mexico communities. Trujillo was an iron worker who had built the home he shared with his family and is remembered by relatives as a devoted father and a comedian with a warm presence. He was killed alongside his wife, Maria Rosita Gallegos, 49, and his stepson, Brendon Herrera, 20, in what investigators believe began as a domestic dispute at the family home.

The alleged perpetrator, identified as 21-year-old Damian Herrera, then traveled north, where authorities say he killed 61-year-old Michael Kyte in Tres Piedras and later 59-year-old Manuel Serrano at a general store in Abiquiu. Officers located a vehicle taken from one of the scenes, pursued it, and apprehended Damian Herrera after a crash and a struggle with deputies.

Did anyone in the region know Max Trujillo or have information about that day that could add context to these events?
