 Photo Credits: Source One News Age: 22 (As of November 10, 2018) Height: 5'9 Weight: 150 to 170 lbs Tattoos: "Respect" and "Loyalty" on his arms -- On the night of Halloween 2014, authorities in Moses Lake, Washington say that Jose Pichardo was driving back to work from a lunch break with his mother. That is when Luis Galvan allegedly opened fire into Jose's vehicle and shot him, causing Jose to crash into a home. The mother and daughter inside that home had just stepped into a back room to get ready for Halloween and were not injured. However, tragically Jose who was a loving father and husband died from his gunshot wounds. Luis Galvan has been on the run ever since. Detectives have confirmed sightings in Washington's Grant County, as well as in the city of Yakima. Based on crime location, it is advised to contact the Moses Lake Police Department at (509) 764-3900 if you have any information on Luis Galvan's whereabouts.Moderator Note: If you have any news-related updates on this case, please contact us here: amwfans.com/thread/1662/website-contact-form
--Thoughts? As of today, November 10, 2018, Luis Galvan is still at large because he was featured last night on the Washington's Most Wanted website. I didn't see a confirmed or presumed motive as to why Luis allegedly killed Jose, but regardless we do have a fugitive who is charged with committing a murder at around the age of 18. Judging by the sightings, it seems to be that rather than trying to flee to Latin America presumably, the article referenced his friends may be hiding him out in the region where he's wanted out of. That would make it easier to apprehend Luis, someone just has to do the right thing and give investigators the crucial tip. q13fox.com/2018/11/09/luis-galvan-help-end-murder-suspects-4-year-run-from-law/ |

Just a note that the Washington's Most Wanted article is now archived meaning we can no longer rely on it to confirm a wanted status but as far as I can tell, Galvan is still at large as of this update (10/10/2019), since I see no articles claiming otherwise. Also I found a 2015 article that goes into more detail about the case. Luis Galvan's full name is Luis Suarez-Galvan and he allegedly killed Jose Pichardo over some sort of gang turf dispute. About 16 days before Jose's murder, police received a report that Suarez-Galvan’s brother allegedly shot at Jose's brother from a green Honda outside a grocery store. This is just meant to add some details in the case as Jose Pichardo is still the victim in this case. And the fact remains that Galvan committed murder and even gang killings have the potential to harm innocent bystanders, as a matter of fact based on the original summary of HeadMarshal's it seems Jose's mother and sister were in the line of fire but thankfully weren't hit as well, so this is still a very dangerous alleged fugitive who can be a threat to the general public as well that needs to be caught. And once again this update was not meant to disparage Jose in any way, granted he wasn't a teenager, but at 22 he was young enough to eventually turn his life around and still deserves justice like any other victim. www.ifiberone.com/news/charges-filed-for-murder-in-moses-lake-on-halloween-in/article_d453140e-3c92-11e5-9a22-eb33bbead79c.html |

As of today, October 14, 2023, Luis's case in Washington's Odyssey court records database is in "on warrant" status with no case events since 2015. I checked PACER and did not see an UFAP (Unlawful Flight To Avoid Prosecution) case for Luis. - odysseyportal.courts.wa.gov/ODYPORTAL/Home/WorkspaceMode?p=0 (Search "Suarez Galvan, Luis") |
