Von Randell Correia

Von Randell Correia was a 29-year-old resident of Fresno, California. Public records and contemporary news accounts identify him by name and age and place him in the close-knit neighborhoods of Fresno where family and community ties are important. Though formal public memorials or a published obituary matching his July 28, 2015 death date were not located in available obituary indexes, reporting from the time records that he lived in the area near Maple and Shields Avenues and was known to his family.

Family members described him as someone who belonged in his neighborhood and who had everyday rhythms and relationships like many young people in Fresno. A father who spoke with local news at the time explained that Von had been in the area the night he died; that comment, offered in grief, reflects how his loss was experienced by those closest to him. Court records and subsequent appellate opinions identify him by full name in the legal proceedings that followed his death, underscoring that his life and its ending entered public record.

Beyond the immediate facts that appear in public reports, there is limited personal detail available in reliable published sources. That scarcity does not diminish the reality that Von Randell Correia was a person with family, neighbors, and a life in Fresno. What is verifiable is that his death on July 28, 2015 brought grief to those who knew him and led to legal accountability for the persons later convicted in connection with the killing. Remembering him means honoring that he was a real person — rooted in a community — whose life mattered to others.
