ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Two teens who are accused of murdering a five-year-old girl will remain behind bars until trial. Police said Galilea Samaniego was shot in the head and killed while she was sleeping at a mobile home in southwest Albuquerque last month.
Investigators believe Yahir Carballo, Alexander Barraza, and others were targeting a teen who lived at the home but they ended up hitting the five-year-old instead. The judge agreed with the state that both suspects would be a danger to the community if released.
