Giovanna Anastasia Gigi Giannini, 20, of Daly City, was shot dead on September 28, 2019, in East Oakland. Gigi and her boyfriend Ryan Wasilausky were found inside a vehicle that had crashed into a home in the 500 block of Douglas Avenue after attending the Rolling Loud Bay Area festival; both had sustained gunshot wounds to the head. Investigators determined the pair were victims of a robbery.
Oakland police identified 36-year-old Keith Riley as a suspect and charged him with two counts of murder with special circumstances for multiple murders and murder during the course of a robbery, plus second-degree robbery. Authorities say surveillance footage, witness statements, text messages, social media records and other evidence placed Riley with the victims before and after the shooting; Riley denied involvement while giving contradictory accounts of his whereabouts.
Gigi was remembered by family and friends as loving, funny and passionate about beauty. Ryan was a business major at Cal State East Bay who enjoyed traveling, cooking and time with friends.
