They are both facing a charge of open murder.

It appears there was an arrest warrant hearing for the pair in Las Vegas Justice Court although only one of the defendants appeared in court.

They are both being held on no bail and their next hearing has been scheduled for Apri 28.

According to Las Vegas police, Daniel Halseth may have told his daughter before his death that she was not allowed to date Guerrero.
