Girl's Body Still Missing, But Court Proceedings Continue: MoVal

Mar. 29, 2022
MORENO VALLEY, CA — A preliminary hearing is set next week for two brothers accused of killing a 16-year-old Moreno Valley girl whose body has yet to be found.
[.....]
Both defendants are being held without bail at the Byrd Detention Center in Murrieta and are charged with murder and a special circumstance allegation of lying in wait.

The preliminary hearing for the pair is scheduled for April 6 at the Riverside Hall of Justice and will determine whether there's sufficient evidence to warrant a trial.
[.....]
Sheriff's Lt. Chris Durham said in 2019 that Owen Shover, a friend of hers from Moreno Valley High School, was the last person to have seen her alive.

Durham said investigators spoke to Shover, who claimed he had dropped Briones at the park, where she was picked up by somebody in a four-door sedan. But Durham said that surveillance cameras from the area undercut Shover's story.
[.....]
A possible motive for the alleged slaying has not been disclosed.

In the weeks following her disappearance, the girl's loved ones distributed flyers throughout the city and surrounding locations bearing her photograph and other information. However, detectives have still not determined where her remains might be located.

The defendants have no documented prior felony convictions.

I won't know how to react if the PH really happens next week. :eek:

Going back to March 2019 - Oct 2019 posts where the reports cited:

A neighbor of the Shovers told reporters that she saw sheriff's investigators digging in the backyard of the brothers' home, where they unearthed clothing and blankets.

"Evidence was collected that confirmed ... Miss Briones was the victim of a homicide and points at these two brothers," Durham said.

DA commented that there are 1800 pages of evidence, and 12 CD's of photos.

And That was three years ago so I pray they have even more evidence today. Justice delayed is justice denied.

Let's go! Hoping the Court bounds both brothers over for trial. MOO


Pair Accused Of Killing Missing RivCo Girl Plead Not Guilty
3/1/19

Briones was last seen Jan. 13 in Moreno Valley Community Park, at the intersection of Cottonwood Avenue and Frederick Street, where she had been visiting with friends and relatives.

Sheriff's Lt. Chris Durham said Owen Shover -- a friend of Briones from Moreno Valley High School -- was the last person to have seen the girl alive. Durham said investigators spoke to Shover, who allegedly claimed he had dropped Briones at the park, where she was picked up by somebody in a four-door sedan. But Durham said that surveillance cameras from the area undercut Shover's story.

"The camera system was reviewed and ultimately it destroys the timeline that he provided," Durham said last month.

A neighbor of the Shovers told reporters that she saw sheriff's investigators digging in the backyard of the brothers' home, where they unearthed clothing and blankets.

"Evidence was collected that confirmed ... Miss Briones was the victim of a homicide and points at these two brothers," Durham said.

Authorities have not disclosed a possible motive for the killing.

Gary Anthony Shover, 21, and Owen Skyler Shover, 18, were arrested last Feb in connection with the death of Aranda Briones. They're both charged with murder and a special circumstance allegation of lying in wait.

Felony Settlement Conference (FSC) for the two Shover brothers continued to
Oct 25, 2019.

Both brothers are housed in separate jails, and they did make Sept appearance.

DA commented that there are 1800 pages of evidence, and 12 CD's of photos. Hope more will be shared at preliminary hearing -- still not scheduled....

Okay @Seattle1 - I changed Owen's hearing to Motion hearing - to continue Prel. hearing. Left Gary's as is. Thanks!

I would expect the preliminary hearing to be all day for Owen and not seeing any news! Won't be surprised if his case also continued??

Only courtroom #44 was streamed this morning. Another murder case.

But it wasn't a total loss as I learned some things from Judge #44 during his jury instructions about how the attorneys are allowed to speculate and make inferences in closing arguments (i.e., closing argument is not evidence).
