Trevino, 18, was 16 years old when 24-year-old Carlos Arajeni-Arriaza Morillo was killed in Grand Prairie, Texas. Prosecutors have charged her with the murder of Morillo during an attempted robbery, alongside Jesse Martinez and Philip Aguilera Baldenegro. Trevino s defense claims that she was being trafficked by Baldenegro, with Morillo having planned to pay to sexually abuse Trevino before being killed. Baldenegro does not dispute that he was the person who pulled the trigger.

Attorneys Debate Sex Trafficking Claims in 2019 Deadly Robbery

For more than a year in social media and online posts, Trevino’s parents and supporters have made that assertion. They asked for contributions to help support her. The posts depict a young scholar and athlete forced into sex trafficking and drew national attention from celebrities. Trevino turned 18 in February and has been declared an adult in court. She was a 16-year-old minor when she and the two young men were accused of a robbery that went bad at a Grand Prairie apartment complex. Carlos Arajeni-Arriaza Morillo, 24, was killed. Another robbery victim was injured but survived.  Now that she is no longer protected from the release of information as a minor, the other attorneys won a court order that allows them to show evidence which they say disputes the sex trafficking claims.

Zephi Trevino Will Be Tried as Adult, Court Rules

As Dallas County prosecutors worked on the certification, Trevino’s legal team, family and some celebrities tried to get the case dismissed by claiming she was being trafficked at the time of the murder. “This judge certified a victim to be an adult for a crime that her abuser committed, and hopefully a higher court can see it from that perspective,” Moore said. Celebrities such as Kim Kardashian West and actress Jaimie Lee Curtis have both shared Trevino’s story, which was also highlighted in an episode of the Wrongful Conviction Podcast. Curtis and Kardashian have pleaded with the public to help get the charges dropped, making the same sex trafficking claims.
