Today marks 7 years since Liz was senselessly murdered. I do hope that this year someone comes forward or new information is found. This is way too long for a family to wait for answers.

Father's dying wish renews urgency in unsolved 2019 Liz Barraza murder
The 29-year-old was shot and killed on the morning of Jan. 25, 2019, outside her home on Cedar Walk Drive near Tomball. She was setting up for a garage sale.
Her parents, Rosemary and Robert "Bob" Nuelle, have spent years pleading for information in a case that continues to frustrate investigators.
"I could be around for a couple of years, or it could be a couple of months," Bob said. "It's in God's hands."
Bob Nuelle was diagnosed last year with stage four esophageal cancer that has spread to his liver, lungs, lymph nodes, femur, and spine, he says. He has lost 150 pounds and relies on a feeding tube.
For Bob Nuelle, his wish is simple.
"If you ever needed to pull on your heartstrings. A 67-year-old man dying and not knowing who shot his daughter," he said. "I'm hoping this makes it hard to keep that silence."
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (8477) or by submitting a tip online. Tips can be made anonymously.
