Defense attorneys say they need more time to review the evidence. 

Bedford County Commonwealth's Attorney Wes Nance says his office gave the defense a vast amount of evidence, much of which has to be translated from Spanish. 

Soto-Bonilla and Sanchez-Gomez are believed to be members of the MS-13 gang. Sanchez-Gomez's trial has been moved to September 11. 

The trial date for Soto-Bonilla has not been set yet.
