墨西哥恩塞纳达——这起案件引发了人们对前往墨西哥旅游的游客安全问题的担忧。周四，三名被控杀害两名澳大利亚兄弟及其美国朋友的男子的审判进入最后阶段。
ENSENADA, Mexico — The trial of three men accused of killing two Australian brothers and their American friend during a surfing trip to Mexico in 2024 entered its final stage Thursday, in a case that raised concerns about the safety of tourists visiting the country.
经过一个月的庭审后，墨西哥下加利福尼亚州的检方与辩护律师预计将于周四发表结案陈词。法官则定于周五宣布判决结果。
Prosecutors in the Mexican state of Baja California and defense attorneys were expected to deliver closing arguments Thursday after a month of hearings. A judge is scheduled to announce a verdict Friday.
澳大利亚兄弟卡勒姆·罗宾逊与杰克·罗宾逊的父母马丁·罗宾逊和黛布拉·罗宾逊预计将出席周四的庭审。这两名兄弟及其美国友人杰克·卡特·罗兹均在此次事件中丧生。
Martin and Debra Robinson, the parents of Australian brothers Callum and Jake Robinson, were expected to attend Thursday’s hearing. The brothers were killed along with their American friend, Jack Carter Rhoad.
2024年4月，这三名男子前往下加利福尼亚州，在距离沿海城市恩塞纳达约80公里的圣何塞角一带冲浪。他们抵达后不久便失踪，其遗体于5月3日在当地的一口水井中被发现。罗宾逊夫妇从澳大利亚赶来，出席自9月7日开始的审判。
The three men traveled to Baja California in April 2024 to surf near Punta San José, about 80 kilometers (50 miles) from the coastal city of Ensenada. They were reported missing shortly after arriving, and their bodies were found May 3 in a well near the area. The Robinsons traveled from Australia to attend the trial, which began Sept. 7.
“我知道孩子们也希望我们在这里；换作是他们，也会为我们这么做，”马丁·罗宾逊在庭审开始时说道。
“I know they would want us to be here; they would do the same for us,” Martin Robinson said at the start of the proceedings.
共有四人因与该起谋杀案有关而被捕，其中包括被检方指认为凶手的赫苏斯·赫拉尔多·加西亚，人称“埃尔·凯卡斯”。
Four people were arrested in connection with the killings, including Jesús Gerardo García, known as “El Kekas,” who prosecutors allege carried out the murders.
去年11月，加西亚的前女友阿里·吉塞尔·席尔瓦·拉亚承认犯有严重抢劫及暴力劫车罪，被判处20年监禁。当局称在其身上发现了其中一名受害者的手机。
García’s former partner, Ary Gisell Silva Raya, was sentenced to 20 years in prison last November after pleading guilty to aggravated robbery and violent vehicle theft. Authorities said they found one of the victims’ phones in her possession.
加西亚与另外两名被告伊里内奥·弗朗西斯科及安赫尔·赫苏斯均选择接受审判。
García and two other defendants, Irineo Francisco and Ángel Jesús, chose to stand trial.
在上个月的庭审中，席尔瓦·拉亚向法庭陈述称，加西亚承认自己手持一把9毫米手枪走向冲浪者们所住的帐篷。她表示，那些男子为了抵御攻击，纷纷将随身物品朝加西亚扔去，其中一人还恳求饶命。
During testimony last month, Silva Raya told the court that García had confessed to approaching the surfers’ tent with a 9 mm handgun. She said the men threw their belongings at him in an attempt to fend off the attack and that one pleaded for his life.
下加利福尼亚州总检察长玛丽亚·埃琳娜·安德拉德·拉米雷斯称，据指控加西亚试图从冲浪者的皮卡货车上偷走轮胎及其他零部件。检方认为，在这些男子反抗时，加西亚开枪将其击伤，随后将他们的尸体藏入一口井中。
Baja California Attorney General María Elena Andrade Ramírez said García allegedly tried to steal tires and other parts from the surfers’ pickup truck. Prosecutors believe he shot the men when they resisted and later concealed their bodies in a well.
