Time's Running Out for the Barraza Family in Unsolved Murder Case
Seven years have passed since Liz Barraza was brutally gunned down outside her home on January 25, 2019, while setting up for a garage sale. The tragic event still resonates deeply with her family, particularly her father Robert "Bob" Nuelle, who has spent the better part of seven years pleading for information to bring his daughter's killer to justice.
As the anniversary of Liz's murder approaches, Bob's determination has only intensified, fueled by his own mortality diagnosis last year. Diagnosed with stage four esophageal cancer that has spread to multiple organs, Bob knows he doesn't have much time left. His wish is for someone to come forward and reveal the truth behind his daughter's senseless murder.
Liz's murder was a carefully planned attack, with the suspect disguising themselves before opening fire on her while she waited in the driveway. The lack of motive has made it difficult to crack the case, despite the presence of several surveillance cameras in the area, including those belonging to the Barrazas' home, which captured footage of a dark-colored Nissan Frontier believed to be the suspect's vehicle.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office remains committed to solving the case, with Sgt. Michael Ritchie emphasizing that someone must know something about the murder. A $50,000 Crime Stoppers reward is in place for information leading to an arrest, and Bob Nuelle hopes that his plea will finally prompt a breakthrough.
In a heart-wrenching interview, Bob shared his final wish: "If you ever needed to pull on your heartstrings... a 67-year-old man dying and not knowing who shot his daughter." His words serve as a stark reminder of the urgency in bringing closure to Liz's family, who have been left with more questions than answers for far too long.
As the clock ticks down, the Barraza family remains hopeful that justice will finally be served. If you or anyone you know has information about Liz's murder, contact Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477) or submit a tip online anonymously.
