Officers found Mejia-Alvarez’s body in a wooded area shortly before 1 p.m. May 23 in the 8900 block of New Hampshire Avenue in Silver Spring, police said.
Mejia-Alvarez was killed four days before his body was found in the woods, with cell phone records showing he and the Mancias-Callejas brothers were at an apartment building together before they travelled to an isolated location where Mejia-Alvarez’s body was eventually found, according to charging documents.
The Mancias-Callejas brothers and Sosa are members of MS-13, charging documents state.
The brothers are being held in the county jail without bond. An attorney for the brothers could not be immediately reached for comment.
