MURRIETA (CNS) - Four of seven people accused in the gang-related torture-killing of a 31-year-old Wildomar man whose remains were dumped in the Cleveland National Forest pleaded not guilty Friday to murder and other charges.
Roberto Ramon Camacho, 43, Christina Mesa, 30, Cristian Gabriel Meza, 28, and Alejandro Villegas, 25, were arrested over the last six weeks in connection to the August slaying of Frery Coronel.
