Reveles was initially arrested in August 2014, accused of killing Medina during a fight in the Aviator Casino parking lot that escalated into gunfire on August 9, 2014. Delano police officers responded to the scene and found Medina had been shot multiple times.
Kern County District Attorney Cynthia Zimmer released a statement in 2019 following Reveles’ re-arrest:
“Murder cases do not have a statute of limitations, and we are committed to working with police agencies to investigate homicides for as long as it takes to develop the evidence needed for prosecution.”
Reveles had been released in 2015 pending the review of lab evidence. He was later re-arrested in 2019.
According to Kern County Superior Court records, Reveles pleaded no contest on April 1 and is set to appear for sentencing on May 22.
