The District Attorney of Santo Domingo has filed formal charges in the trial against nine alleged contract killers who are accused of working for Puerto Rican drug capo Jose David Figueroa Agosto. Deputy prosecutors Candida Ramos, Isidro Vasquez and Denny Silvestre delivered the charges of murder, criminal association and illegal possession of firearms. The judges of the Fourth Collegiate Tribunal of the Penal Chamber of the Court of the First Instance are Pilar Rufino, presiding, Daira Medina and Daniel Julio Nolasco.

Gian Enrique Rojas Matos, Jose Miguel Rodriguez Almonte, Jose Anibal Hidalgo Garcia, Diomedes Moya Duran, Winston Antonio Rodriguez Tavarez, Ricardo Perez Mateo, Wilhen Ortiz de los Santos, Yoel Antonio Feliz Medina and Jose Alverto de la Cruz Paredes are the men charged with being contract killers. They are accused of killing several people, including Colonel Jose Amado Gonzalez Gonzalez, Omar Antigua Polanco and Ruben Soto Hayet.

According to the charges, the defendants murdered to order, used firearms (including military weapons) illegally, stole vehicles and planned terrorist attacks. They also state that Figueroa Agosto ordered the planning and execution of the murders of other people connected to the criminal network. The charges state that Moya Duran verified the movements on the scene when they executed Gonzalez Gonzalez from 12:13pm, reporting to Rojas Matos and Rodriguez Taveras that "the target is completely dead," backed up by phone records and a map of their movements that place them directly at the crime scene.

They also were able to place Rojas Matos and Peres Mateo at the same location as key parts of the execution of the criminal operation. Ten telephones that were located and mapped at the crime scene and based on the text messages sent and received by the users described the way in which the murder was planned, the amount of money involved, which was usually US$30,000, and the pursuit and watch kept on the victims, both on the house as well as the vehicles used by the victim.
