The trial of three Mexican men accused of killing Australian brothers Jake and Callum Robinson, along with their American friend Jack Carter Rhoad, in Baja California, Mexico, is nearing its conclusion. The trio was allegedly murdered during a robbery gone wrong on a surfing holiday. Charged with aggravated homicide, aggravated robbery, violent robbery, and grand theft auto are Jesús Gerardo (known as "El Kekas"), Irineo Francisco, and Ángel Jesús. The judge has set the date for closing arguments for next Thursday, Mexico time, with a verdict expected on Friday, October 9th, before the Robinsons' departure back to Perth. Debra Robinson made an emotional plea in court for the verdict to be delivered early due to their imminent return home.
