In the early morning of January 19, 2017, 59-year-old Donald Paciotti of Las Vegas was shot inside his Spring Road property. Police found his casita in disarray, suggesting a struggle; Paciotti was taken to University Medical Center and died of his wounds. He later told a friend and roommate he had been robbed and was found holding a gun that did not belong to him, which the roommate said Paciotti had wrestled from an attacker. Investigators believed the motive may have been a robbery related to narcotics, and reporting indicates Paciotti allegedly sold methamphetamine from his home.

Months after the killing, two women were arrested in connection with the case. DNA linked 27-year-old Liliana Quezada to a baseball cap and a guitar case at the scene and 26-year-old Diana Michelle Cordon to the firearm used in the shooting; both were seen at the home the night of the murder, reportedly to buy meth. A tipster reported hearing Quezada boast about pulling the trigger. Both women were charged with murder, robbery, and burglary and held without bail.

Did anyone in the Las Vegas area know Paciotti, Cordon, or Quezada, or have information about that night that could help the investigation?
