Overview
- Darryl Muzic Martin, 57, was booked into Riverside County Jail on murder and two weapons counts, with jail records listing an out-of-county warrant and no bail.
- Rudy Moreno, 43, was taken into custody at the same Hemet address and booked on murder and multiple weapons charges, and jail records show he is being held without bail.
- The arrests stem from a multi-agency inquiry that includes Redlands police reviewing the 2023 disappearance of former member Emilio Salem Ghanem.
- Claremont police have linked the group to the 2017 disappearance of Ruben Moreno, and Colton police have reopened the 2010 death of 4-year-old Timothy Thomas connected to the group’s custody.
- Martin was previously arrested in August on illegal weapons allegations, and earlier searches at a Hemet property led to weapons arrests of Rudy Moreno and Kelvin Lee Mackey while Shelly “Kat” Martin was detained and released after a medical episode.
