The bodies of two murdered Perth brothers have been transported across the border from Mexico to the United States, beginning their journey home. Callum, 33, and Jake Robinson, 30, and their friend Jack Carter Rhoad, 30, were on a surfing and camping trip in northern Mexico when they failed to check in to their pre-booked accommodation near the city of Ensenada on April 27. When police arrived at their last known whereabouts, they discovered a campsite covered in blood.

One of them was identified as 33-year-old Mexican national Jesús Gerardo - also known by the alias, el Kekas - who made his first appearance in court on Wednesday. He is charged with forced disappearance, equivalent to kidnapping. He has a criminal record that includes drug dealing, vehicle theft and domestic violence.
