The chief says that Solorio-Rivera was full of jealousy towards her little sister. He says that Arroyo-Morales is a validated gang member. Together, he tells who planned the murders and how to get away with it. This was their plan all along and they thought it worked until it started to fall apart,” Balderrama said.
Police say the couple showed no remorse even after confessing. Prosecutors say they will file a double murder case against both suspects and the charges will include the special circumstances that they committed multiple murders. “The special circumstances of the murder carry a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole and the possibility of the death penalty,”
