My hometown, in the news

Fresno Media: Moralez, who was a cop in Fresno for 30 years, was found dead in 2004 not far from the home of the Chief of Police, Jerry Dyer.
In 2004, Dyer suspended Moralez for allegedly violating department policy, and took his badge and firearm from him.  November 9, 2004, Moralez went to Dyer’s home to confront him after working out in his garage with his 13-year-old son.   That was the last time anyone saw Jose Moralez alive.
It was reported at the time that a motorist saw Jose face down, near a truck, with an alleged self-inflicted gunshot wound to his chest.
Apparent in a statement made by then City Manager, Daniel G. Hobbs, not everyone believed Jose’s death was a suicide:
