Update, October 21, 2022:

The Washoe County District Attorney’s Office has announced that 45-year-old Eduardo Palacios-Luevano from Reno was sentenced to 20 years in prison on one count of Attempted Murder after having pleaded guilty in June to the charge.

Based on the sentence received, Palacios-Luevano was ordered to serve a minimum of 8 years in prison before parole eligibility begins.

The case against Palacios-Luevano began on April 4, 2021, when the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO) responded to a report of a battery with a weapon shooting call.

The victim who called to report the shooting stated she had been shot by her ex-husband after he broke into her home.

When WCSO deputies arrived, they located the victim who had been shot in her right hip. She was transported to the hospital where she received extensive treatment for her injury.

Responding deputies met with the victim’s family members, who had disarmed and detained Palacios-Luevano.

He was arrested after an investigation into the shooting and the DA's office filed criminal charges against him.

During the sentencing, Deputy District Attorney Carrie Morton argued that the horrific event, with the long-lasting impact on the victims involved, justifies the maximum sentence.

Palacios-Leuvano has been sentenced to 20 years.
