A Mexican judge has convicted three men of the 2024 murders of two Australian surfers and their American friend during a surfing trip on Mexico’s Pacific coast.
The victims were Jake Robinson, 30, and his brother Callum Robinson, 33, both from Australia, and Carter Rhoad, 30, an American. They were shot dead in Baja California in what authorities say was a suspected robbery.
The case has sparked international outrage, with Australian and American officials calling for justice and expressing concern over the safety of tourists in the region.
Baja California, a state on Mexico’s Pacific coast, is a popular destination for surfers. The murders occurred while the trio was surfing in the area.
Following a trial, the judge found the three defendants guilty of the murders. No further details about the convictions or the defendants were provided in the source material.
