Richard Martinez was 32 when he was shot on the evening of November 16, 2015, in the 1700 block of East Eighth Street in Pueblo, Colorado. Officers found him inside a vehicle after calls about gunfire; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Pueblo detectives identified a person of interest as 33-year-old Charles Stiver, known as Chuck, from the Denver area. A warrant for first-degree murder was issued, and on November 19, 2015 the Denver Police Fugitive Location and Apprehension Team arrested Stiver in Denver without incident. He was transferred to Pueblo to face charges.

The case proceeded to trial; a jury convicted Stiver of second-degree murder and he was later sentenced to 40 years in the Department of Corrections. Does anyone have information about Martinez’s life in Pueblo or that November 2015 evening that could add to the record?
