After a preliminary hearing in Santa Barbara County Superior Court in August 2019, a judge said enough evidence existed for Fuentes to face trial on 10 charges, including kidnapping for robbery or rape, two counts of forcible oral copulation, attempted forcible rape, and two counts of dissuading a witness, along with assorted robbery and burglary counts.
At the time of his arrest in 2018, Fuentes was on parole, police said.
Santa Maria Police Department detectives were able to quickly identify Fuentes as a suspect after the second sexual assault, and linked Fuentes to both crimes through DNA analysis and other evidence collected.
