<v Speaker 1>Two gang members are in custody after allegedly drugging, robbing,

0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and killing an American Airlines flight attendant during an international layover.

0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Thirty two year old Eric Fernando Gutierrez Molina, based in

0:00:17.960 --> 0:00:22.759
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Fort Worth, vanished on March twenty second while visiting Metayine, Colombia.

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:26.119
<v Speaker 1>Five days later, his body was found abandoned between the

0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:31.120
<v Speaker 1>municipalities of Jericho and Puente Iglesias. The US Embassy in

0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Colombia announced that two men were arrested in Peru for

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Molina's death, twenty three year old Andreas Felippe Pena Carals

0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:42.080
<v Speaker 1>and thirty one year old William o'lave Gamboa. The arrests

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:46.440
<v Speaker 1>were executed under Colombian warrants following a joint operation between

0:00:46.479 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Homeland Security Investigations offices in Bogata and Lima, alongside police

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>in Colombia and Peru. Corals escaped to Bogata before fleeing

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:59.200
<v Speaker 1>to Peru, where he was caught and transferred back to Colombia.

0:00:59.520 --> 0:01:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Gamba remains in custody in Lima awaiting formal extradition. A

0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:07.360
<v Speaker 1>third suspect, twenty four year old Maria del Carman Gonzalez,

0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:11.240
<v Speaker 1>was also arrested for her alleged involvement in the gang's operations.

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Police investigations revealed the men belonged to a gang targeting

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>foreign citizens through digital dating platforms. Investigators say Molina was

0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>contacted through a dating app, met individuals at a nightclub

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 1>in El Pablado and accompanied them to a hotel. There,

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:32.280
<v Speaker 1>he was given a debilitating substance Metagine. Mayor Fedrico Gutierrez

0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:35.760
<v Speaker 1>explained that the suspects allegedly stole money from Molina's bank

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>accounts and took his jewelry before transporting his body to

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:43.040
<v Speaker 1>a remote wooded area. A forensic report determined Molina's cause

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>of death was mechanical asphyxiation. Both Keralis and Gamboa faced

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 1>charges of aggravated homicide and aggravated robbery. In a statement

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>on x, the US Embassy in Columbia thanked local authorities

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:59.200
<v Speaker 1>for leading the investigation and reaffirmed their commitment to dismantling

0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>criminal network targeting international travelers. More crime and justice news

<v Speaker 1>After this, a Hawaii Democratic congressional candidate is facing felony

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>charges after a wild, profanity laced beach confrontation was caught

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>on camera days before a court appearance. US House candidate

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Careel Basin was knocked unconscious during an altercation at Kiavakapu Beach.

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Video footage shows Bason approaching beach goers and aggressively demanding

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>a man put his bag away. I told him, if

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:39.079
<v Speaker 1>you want to go to come here. The confrontation cooled

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 1>briefly when Bason shook a person's hand, but the piece

0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>lasted only seconds. Bason turned toward another beach goer, shouted

0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:50.000
<v Speaker 1>an obscenity and resumed arguing. When a man warned Basin

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 1>not to speak to his girlfriend in that manner, Bason

0:02:52.919 --> 0:03:03.639
<v Speaker 1>reacted with hostility. Hey good, I don't care. I'll do that.

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>The exchange escalated rapidly as Bason repeatedly asked what they

0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>were going to do and challenged another man to fight.

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:18.959
<v Speaker 1>What are you going to do? Go ahead? I didn't

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>put him in the ground. I didn't put him in

0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the ground. I let's go ahead. I'm good. After a

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:39.040
<v Speaker 1>woman called him a child, Bason demanded to know what

0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:41.680
<v Speaker 1>she said, threatened to put her in the hospital, and

0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>in the ground and hurled derogatory terms while walking away

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:59.080
<v Speaker 1>child I'm a child for years old crowd. Moments later,

0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Bason walked toward his belongings, where Kama Homan approached. Basin

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:08.320
<v Speaker 1>shoved Homan, triggering a scuffle. Basin stumbled backward over beach chairs,

0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:10.840
<v Speaker 1>fell to the sand, got back up, and swung a

0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:14.200
<v Speaker 1>chair at Homan. Homan, who has mixed martial arts training,

0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:19.280
<v Speaker 1>knocked Basin unconscious with the left right combination. After regaining consciousness,

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Bason stated he was going to jail before charging Homan again.

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:27.839
<v Speaker 1>A criminal complaint alleges Basin threatened multiple people, including threatening

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Homan with a five inch switchblade recovered by Maui police.

0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:35.279
<v Speaker 1>At his initial court appearance, a judge maintained Bason's one

0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:39.679
<v Speaker 1>million dollar bail and ordered a mental health assessment. Seven

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.919
