David Contreras has been charged with second-degree murder after fatally shooting his son, Eric, during a heated argument in November 2023. The incident, which occurred over Mother's Day weekend, was captured in doorbell footage where Contreras can be seen breaking down while confessing to his wife that he had killed their son. This footage, along with police bodycam video where Contreras admits to the killing, has come to light, revealing the tragic events of that day. The motivation behind the murder was reportedly Contreras pressuring his girlfriend to confess to cheating accusations, which ultimately led to the fatal shooting of her three-year-old son.
