Richard C. Amodio was 32 when he was fatally shot on the night of August 10, 2014, at the Howard Johnson on North Division in Spokane, Washington. Spokane Police detectives treated the case as a homicide and pursued multiple leads in the weeks that followed.

Two people were arrested early in the investigation; charges against one were later dropped. The remaining arrestee, Stanley A. Tensley, was 24 at the time and was taken into custody in August 2014. In October 2014 police issued a warrant for 23-year-old Enrique Pena on a charge of 1st Degree Murder and reported detectives believed Pena may have left the Spokane area.

Amodio was born December 18, 1981, in Spokane. He was a father, son, and brother; his parents and daughter survived him and he was preceded in death by a brother. Does anyone who knew Richard or who was in the area that night have information that could help the investigation?
