Thoughts? As of this posting date (March 20th, 2020), Gomez is still listed on the LAPD most wanted website, which granted is not the most updated website and has mainly cold case fugitives only, but since it still a functioning website enough for me to reasonably assume that he is probably still wanted as of this update. If that status has changed or changes in the future, anyone is more than welcome to let us know.
P.S. Unfortunately I could not find any additional information about who the alleged victim was in this case.
