On the morning of January 25, 2019, Elizabeth Barraza died at her home in Tomball, Texas.

Background

Liz was born to Bob Nuelle Jr.^[1] and married to Sergio for nearly 5 years.^[2] Barraza had been arranging a garage sale on the driveway of her home.^[3] She had been a member of 501st Legion and a stormtrooper helmet was among the items she was selling.

Murder

She visited Starbucks at 06:08, and at 06:48 her husband left for work. Video footage recovered showed a suspect approaching her at 06:52, apparently shooting her, then fleeing.^[4] Poor quality audio was also recorded via her Google Nest doorbell camera.

Investigation

Nothing was stolen but a vehicle of interest resembling a black 2019 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X was recorded on video arriving then fleeing the scene where the suspect was. Texas Rangers and FBI have investigated the case. No evidence was found against her husband. The suspect on video has never been identified.

Aftermath

A memorial bench was placed in nearby Burroughs Park in 2025.^[5] The case remains unsolved and a $50,000 reward is offered via Crime Stoppers USA Houston.^[6]
