BEDFORD COUNTY, Va. – The trial in a high profile local murder case is expected to begin Thursday.
The jury for the Kevin Soto-Bonilla case has been selected, and opening statements took place Wednesday, according to the Bedford County clerk.
As 10 News has reported, Soto-Bonilla is charged in connection with the 2017 death of Lynchburg teen Raymond Wood.
The death penalty is on the table, as this is a capital murder case.
The trial is expected to last about two weeks.
Soto-Bonilla is one of several men charged in connection with Wood’s death. MS-13 member Victor Rodas was found guilty in October 2018 of first-degree murder, abduction, and gang participation.
