The 21-year-old man accused of shooting to death two teenagers on a date in a Corona movie theater will stand trial for their deaths, a Riverside County Superior Court judge ruled on Friday, Sept. 2, at the conclusion of a one-day preliminary hearing. Enhancements to the murder charges of lying in wait and multiple murders make Joseph Jimenez eligible for the death penalty if convicted as charged. District Attorney Mike Hestrin has not announced whether his office would pursue that sentence. Jimenez is accused of shooting to death Corona residents Rylee Goodrich, 18, and Anthony Barajas, 19, who were on a date at the Regal Edwards cinema on July 26, 2021.
