Pamela Cabriales was a 32-year-old mother and real estate agent whose life ended after a road‑rage style shooting in Denver. On the evening of February 20, 2021, she was stopped at a light at Colfax Avenue and Interstate 25 when her car was involved in a minor fender‑bender. A passenger from the other vehicle, then 14‑year‑old Remi Cordova, exited armed with a high‑powered rifle and fired multiple rounds into Cabriales’s car, striking her in the head. She was taken to hospital and died a few days later, leaving behind a young son.

The day after the shooting, police recognized the suspects’ vehicle, pursued it and crashed; the driver, 18‑year‑old Neshan Johnson, and two juveniles fled but were caught shortly after, with Johnson found hiding in a shed. Investigators say Cordova fired the shots allegedly to impress fellow gang members, and Johnson reportedly encouraged him to shoot. Both defendants were charged and later convicted: Johnson on counts including second‑degree murder and Cordova, although 14 at the time of the shooting, was charged as an adult and convicted of first‑degree murder and attempted first‑degree murder.

Did anyone who knew Pamela or who was in that area that night see anything that could help clarify what happened before the shooting?
