A San Francisco jury has convicted Irvin Hernandez-Flores in a 2022 double murder that occurred in the city's Bayview neighborhood, the District Attorney's office announced. The verdict caps a multi-year criminal case that began when officers found two adults shot inside a home, with a child reportedly present during the incident.

Why it matters

The killings and the ensuing prosecution have remained a source of grief for relatives and neighbors since 2022, with local reporting documenting family pleas for justice and support for the child who witnessed the violence. The case has also drawn intense local attention after parts of the incident were reportedly recorded and shared online.

The details

According to San Francisco police, officers responded in the early hours of Aug. 13, 2022, to the 1100 block of Ingerson Avenue, where they found a 47-year-old man and a 41-year-old woman suffering from gunshot wounds. Both were taken to a local hospital and later died. Investigators detained a relative at the scene and later developed probable cause to book him on multiple felony counts, including homicide, burglary, and child endangerment. At trial, prosecutors argued that the killings were premeditated and relied on witness testimony and digital evidence to lay out their theory of the case.

  • The incident occurred on August 13, 2022.
  • The jury reached its verdict on January 27, 2026.
