The loss of Enrique Barocio has hurt so many people and changed many lives. His sister, Maria is my best-friend and loosing her brother has impacted her life tremendously, a part of her has passed with him and she will never be the same. He was a single father raising two small children on his own. He was a wonderful father and those small children have had their Daddy taken from them. Enrique was a very lovable, handsome, funny brother and family was everything to him. He was murdered by a seventeen year old coward who shot him while he was on his way to buy some tacos. He was arrested immediately but then released by the Huntington Park Police because they did not have enough evidence. Later the DNA was a match, but when Huntington Park Police went to his residence to arrest him, he was not there. He is now on the run somewhere across the border in Mexico. We all hope the murder of Enrique will haunt the coward until he is caught because he was a great Son, Father, Brother, Uncle, Cousin, Nephew, and friend to so many of us. To have his life taken by such a coward. In loving memory of Enrique Barocio. Angie Q
