In the winter of 2021, the community of Santa Fe, New Mexico, was unsettled by the violent death of one of its residents. Frank Pete, a 50-year-old Caucasian male, was fatally shot on Friday, January 8, 2021. The incident that claimed his life unfolded within the confines of an apartment complex in the city, adding a layer of concern for the safety of the neighborhood.
In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, the Santa Fe Police Department launched a homicide investigation.
