Rosales was captured in Mexico on Jan. 26, 2022, three days after the shooting.

Earlier this month, Rosales was found guilty of capital murder.

Known as “Chuck” among family and friends, Galloway, 47, was a 12-year veteran with Precinct 5. A gas station clerk who’d known him since 2011 also testified, saying the two developed a friendship—and that Galloway would often help people at the station.
