Ramy Garcia

On the afternoon of November 2, 2022, the life of Ramy Garcia, a 35-year-old Hispanic/Latino woman, was ended in Millville, New Jersey. Police responded to a call at approximately 4:24 p.m. and found Garcia in the backyard of a residence on the 400 block of North 4th Street. She had suffered a fatal gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene.

According to witness accounts and court testimony, Garcia had been in a heated argument with her husband, 39-year-old Edwin Ramos-Rosado, and was attempting to leave their home with their children. The argument escalated into a physical struggle over a handgun. The weapon discharged during the altercation, and after Ramos-Rosado gained control of it, he shot Garcia once in the head.

Immediately after the shooting, Ramos-Rosado fled the scene in a silver Mercedes. Law enforcement launched a manhunt, warning the public that he should be considered armed and dangerous. The search concluded the following morning, November 3, when officers from the Bellmawr Police Department located and apprehended Ramos-Rosado in a Wawa parking lot.

Ramos-Rosado was charged with murder and related weapons offenses. A judge ordered him to be held without bail pending trial. He was formally indicted on the charges in 2023.

In January 2026, a Cumberland County jury found Edwin Ramos-Rosado guilty of first-degree murder and the associated weapons charges. The case concluded in April 2026, when a judge sentenced him to 60 years in state prison for the murder of his wife.
