Aguilera was charged with murder following an alleged gang-related shooting in a Sunnyvale, California, nightclub parking lot, according to the Mercury News. Both men were charged in the death of 21-year-old Edu Veliz-Salgado. A 24-year-old was also injured during the alleged shooting, but survived. The case went cold until 2024, when detectives with the Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety identified the suspects in 2024.
Judge Hector Ramon released Aguilera on his own recognizance during an Oct. 31 hearing, meaning he has to pay no bail, according to NBC Bay Area. Aguilera completed a prison sentence in 2022 stemming from a burglary.
