MURDER MYSTERY - TRIPLE HOMICIDE, SAN DIEGO, CA
#5
Well, today's press conference revealed very little that hadn't already been covered in the press.

-The suspect Carlo Gallapos Mercado ^ was arrested Friday night.

-He's scheduled to be arraigned on Wednesday.

-No comment on why he might have been in the hospital just prior to his arrest.

-No comment on the suspect's connection to the victims.

-The LE spokesperson did intimate that ballistics evidence was critical to the arrest.

-He also intimated that Mercado targeted the Belvedere brothers and Ilona because that would be the "common sense" conclusion, but didn't confirm a connection between the suspect and the victims and wouldn't comment on motive.

-When asked, the LE spokesperson said he wouldn't rule in or out the possibility of accomplices, but confirmed they're focusing on Mercado right now.

-Part of the investigation was handled by Provo, Utah LE because the three victims all lived there previously and attended school together. No word as to whether Mercado had ties with them in Utah.
