Jose Gil-Leon, 42, died on June 11, 2016, in Appleton, Wisconsin, after a gathering at his home turned deadly. A verbal altercation reportedly began when a derogatory comment was made about Gil-Leon’s daughter and escalated into a physical fight between Gil-Leon and one of two brothers at the party, Miguel Zendejas-Cano. As the daughter tried to intervene, Miguel is reported to have struck and shoved her. During the confrontation, the other brother, Jorge Luis Zendejas-Cano, shot Jose Gil-Leon.

A criminal complaint filed afterward charged Jorge Luis Zendejas-Cano with first-degree intentional homicide and charged Miguel Zendejas-Cano with battery and additional counts. Authorities believed the two brothers may have fled across the border to Mexico to avoid arrest. What did neighbors or anyone at the gathering see that night who could clarify how events escalated?
