‘A mother should never lose their child,’ loved ones remember Las Vegas murder victim

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Loved ones of a murder victim gathered at Craig Ranch Park in North Las Vegas on Wednesday to remember her and to remind the public her alleged killer still hasn’t been caught one year later.

Tabatha Tozzi, 26, was shot in the head on April 22, 2023, and authorities identified the suspect as Oswaldo “Nate” Perez-Sanchez, Tozzi’s boyfriend. Perez-Sanchez committed a carjacking immediately after shooting Tozzi, according to Las Vegas Metro police. He hasn’t been seen since.

“One whole year without my daughter. One whole year that he’s out there somewhere, and that’s not fair,” Regina Gomes, Tozzi’s mother, told the 8 News Now Investigators.

Gomes said her daughter was trying to break up with Perez-Sanchez.

“A mother should never lose their child and the way that the events unfolded and the fact that we literally have no clue where he could be, not even one percent closer than we were on day one, it’s just, there’s no words for it, honestly,” Ashley Galvan, Tozzi’s best friend said.

Perez-Sanchez has ties to southern California and Mexico and may be in Las Vegas, California or Mexico, according to the FBI.

While Tozzi’s story has gained much attention on social media, the U.S. Marshals told the 8 News Now Investigators no recent tips have been received.
