ENSENADA, Mexico — A trial began on Monday in a court in the Mexican state of Baja California for three suspects allegedly involved in the murders of two Australians and an American in 2024, which shocked Mexico and raised concerns about the risks faced by foreigners visiting the country. Jesús Gerardo García, also known as 'el Kekas'; Irineo Francisco 'N', and Ángel Jesús 'N' were presented in court in the coastal city of Ensenada for the oral trial regarding their alleged participation in the crime against Australian brothers Callum Ryan Robinson and Jake Martin Robinson, as well as American Jack Carter Rhoad. The hearing concluded in the late afternoon and will continue on Tuesday. Just before entering the courtroom, Martin Robinson, father of the Australian brothers, told the press that he and his wife decided to attend the hearing in Ensenada to represent their sons. 'I know they would want us to be here; they would do the same for us,' he expressed. García was arrested in 2024 along with two other men and Ary Gisell Silva Raya following the discovery of the bodies of the Robinson brothers and Carter, who had been reported missing shortly after arriving in Mexico to surf the beaches of Baja California.
