3 men found guilty of killing American and Australian brothers on surfing trip in Mexico

A local judge on Friday found three men guilty of the murders of two Australian brothers and their American friend in April 2024 in the Mexican state of Baja California.

The defendants, who had been in custody for more than two years, were also found guilty of armed robbery and armed carjacking.

"It's hard for a parent to lose a son, and we lost two sons," Martin Robinson said, BBC reported.

García, identified as the perpetrator of the murders, was arrested in May 2024 in connection to the case, along with his ex-partner Ary Gisell Silva Raya, Irineo Francisco "N" and Ángel Jesús "N."

During the monthlong trial, chilling details of the brutal crime were revealed. Silva Raya testified last month during a hearing that García confessed to her that he arrived at the tent where the foreigners were staying with a 9 mm pistol.

The state prosecutor's office reported that Silva Raya arrived in Punta San Jose on April 27, 2024, where she met the three foreigners and "instigated one of her companions to rob them," which was carried out the following day.

The judge will announce the final sentence on Oct. 16. The Baja California State Attorney General's Office requested for each defendant the "exemplary sentence" of 210 years in prison.
