Here's a look at 30-year-old Gabino Genao — who right now is still at large — He's 6-feet tall, weighs 200 pounds and according to police has more than a dozen arrests for crimes including robbery and assault.
This mug shot was taken following a crime just 6 months ago.
Police say he shot and killed his wife, 30-year-old Ivelisse Alvarado, in the head. Family members say Alvarado was a devoted mother of two, who managed to work while also going to school full time.
According to family, it was some of the victim's relatives who found her, after she was shot at her uncle's home during a family gathering for the holiday.
