According to a recent court hearing, it was revealed that one of the three Mexican men who were arrested in connection to the tragic deaths of two Australian brothers and their American friend had confessed to his then-girlfriend about the killings. The incident had taken place over the weekend and shook the entire community when the bodies of Perth men Callum and Jake Robinson, along with their friend Jack Carter Rhoad, were found 10 meters deep inside a well.
It is believed that the three locals had shot the victims during a robbery that went horribly wrong. The alleged leader of the trio, Jesus Gerardo, also known as "El Kekas", appeared in court for the second time on Wednesday for a 45-minute hearing. During this time, his girlfriend, Ari Gisel García Cota, testified for the prosecution and shared details of a conversation she had with Gerardo. Apparently, he had returned home from a campsite in Baja California, where the Australians and Rhoad were last seen on April 27.
Cota told the court that Gerardo had admitted to her, "I essentially messed up three gringos." When she asked him to clarify, he coldly replied, "I killed them." This shocking revelation left Cota in a state of shock and fear. Gerardo then took her outside and showed her a car, which he had been driving. She recognized it as the same car the victims were driving before their deaths. Cota immediately left the house and sought refuge at her mother's place a few kilometers away.
However, she was later arrested by the authorities and agreed to cooperate with their investigation. She revealed that she was a mother to a young girl and a victim of domestic violence. Gerardo was charged with forced kidnapping, but he did not enter a plea. He is currently in custody and is scheduled to appear in court again in November. Meanwhile, the parents of the two Australian brothers have traveled to Mexico to identify their bodies and bring them back home to the United States.
In a heartbreaking statement to the media, Debra and Martin Robinson paid tribute to their sons and their American friend. A GoFundMe page has also been set up to help cover the expenses of their travel, accommodation, and funeral costs while the investigation is ongoing. This tragic incident has left the community in shock and mourning, and the search for justice continues.
