The other unidentified victims were 17, 21 and 24 at the time of the shooting.

Caballero, Aguilar and Morgan were arrested in Sonora, a state in Mexico, on Oct. 20. Morgan returned to Sonoma County and Caballero and Aguilar were taken to Pima County Jail in Arizona. They fought extradition but returned to Sonoma County in December.

All three are scheduled for a court hearing Monday to set a date for a preliminary hearing that is expected to be held in April at the soonest, defense attorneys said.
