Still No Arrests Made for Giovanni Ramirez’s Murder

Thirty-year-old Giovanni Ramirez was fatally shot while driving his red SUV on Amandala Drive just over a week ago. Since then, there have been no arrests made in connection with his murder.

Last week, the police had reported having video footage that captured the moment of the attack, in which two men were seen ambushing Ramirez on a motorcycle and firing a barrage of gunshots.

Ramirez had faced legal issues himself, having appeared in court for various criminal offences. He played a pivotal role in the conviction of attorney Oscar Selgado, who was sentenced to ten years in prison for attempting to hire Ramirez to murder Marilyn Barnes. Although Ramirez provided key testimony, he never testified in court due to fear, and reports suggest recordings of his conversations went missing. Ramirez had also recently been charged with gang membership.

In an interview today, Commissioner Williams said that the police have located and interviewed persons of interest in the case, but no useful information was obtained, and they were released. Authorities are continuing to search for evidence and urge anyone with information to come forward.

“Those persons who we were looking for at that particular moment have been found. They have been interviewed. They have not been able to get anything tangible from them, and so they were released. The investigators came to the area looking for evidence,” he said. “We invite anyone who has any information that they believe can help us in solving that murder to please come forward, and let’s see what we can do,” Williams added.
