Mexican authorities have arrested a fourth suspect in connection to the alleged murders of Perth brothers Jake and Callum Robinson and American man Carter Rhoad during a surf trip in Mexico. The suspect, identified as Jesús Gerardo, also known as “El Kekas,” is accused of discovering the victims, being driven by a motive to steal from them, and subsequently murdering them.
Prosecutors allege that after the murders, Jesús Gerardo disposed of the bodies in a well. The tragic discovery was made after the three surfers went missing, sparking an intense investigation that led to several arrests.
A significant development in the case is the involvement of a witness, Ari Gisell, who has turned against Jesús Gerardo and is now the prosecution’s star witness. This testimony is expected to play a crucial role in the proceedings as authorities work to bring justice to the victims and their families.
The case has drawn considerable attention due to the brutal nature of the crimes and the international implications, with both Australian and American victims involved.
