Virginia Guadelupe Castaneda, 20, was found dead in an upstairs bedroom of a home on Swansonville Road near Port Ludlow, Washington, on the morning of July 23, 2015. Deputies responding to a call from the mother of 33-year-old Evan Daniel Thompson discovered Thompson in the backyard with self-inflicted cuts to his wrists and a gunshot wound to his head; a .22-caliber pistol was recovered at the scene.

An autopsy determined Castaneda died from asphyxiation due to strangulation. Thompson, airlifted to Harborview Medical Center and later arrested on suspicion of second-degree murder, told detectives he had strangled her and gave a delusional explanation that she was a government spy plotting against him. He was found competent to stand trial, pleaded guilty in January 2016 to second-degree murder, and was sentenced in February 2016 to 15 years in prison.

Did anyone in the community know Virginia or have information about her relationship with Evan Daniel Thompson that could shed light on the period leading up to July 23, 2015?
