Las Vegas, Nevada – A tragic incident in North Las Vegas left a community grieving after a beloved pastor, Nick Davi, was shot and killed in December 2023. The pastor’s friend, Mindy King, shared heartfelt memories of Davi, describing him as kind and gentle. The shooting, captured on video by the couple’s daughter, also resulted in injuries to Davi’s wife, Sarah Davi, who survived the attack.
The neighbor responsible for the shooting, Joe Junio, now faces several charges including open murder with a deadly weapon and attempted murder. Reports indicate that tensions between Junio and the Davi family had escalated prior to the incident, leading to legal action such as a restraining order and calls to the police. The family has since filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Junio.
Attorney James Urrutia, representing the Davi family, expressed relief that Junio is currently in jail, ensuring the family’s safety. Urrutia also took steps to prevent Junio from posting bail, ultimately leading to the revocation of her bail by the District Attorney. The legal proceedings continue as Junio maintains her plea of not guilty to the charges.
In the midst of this tragedy, the community remains in shock and grief, rallying around the Davi family to honor the memory of the beloved pastor. As they navigate this nightmare, King emphasized how unexpected and heartbreaking this ordeal has been for everyone involved. The focus now shifts to seeking justice and closure for Nick Davi, as his legacy lives on in the hearts of those who knew him.
Junio is scheduled to appear in court again on March 26 to address the charges against her. Meanwhile, a GoFundMe account has been set up to assist the Davi family in the wake of the tragedy. The community continues to come together to support and uphold the memory of Pastor Nick Davi.
