A 19-year-old charged with fatally stabbing his uncle in a dispute over a bottle of hot sauce was acquitted earlier this year in another killing, 9NEWS Investigates has learned. Denver prosecutors charged George Vigil with second-degree murder in Sunday’s killing at a home in the 2300 block of Federal Boulevard. That occurred after “an argument erupted between family members over the bottle of hot sauce,” according to court documents obtained by 9NEWS. This wasn't the first time Vigil has supposedly stabbed someone. In the documents, with sources confirming, Denver police previously arrested Vigil on Sept. 3, 2021, for the death of Timothy Gama, 54. According to sources, Gama was sitting on a short landscaping wall outside Vigil’s family home when a dispute occurred. Gama died of multiple stab wounds, and police arrested Vigil, then 16. Prosecutors charged him with first-degree murder. Earlier this year the case went to trial, but a jury acquitted him. The case file is sealed, so details of what happened in the courtroom aren’t clear.
