WEST PALM BEACH — Prosecutors have agreed to give attorneys for Jorge Barahona more specifics on charges he faces in Palm Beach County related to the Miami killing of his 10-year-old adopted daughter. Barahona and his wife, Carmen, face the death penalty in Miami for the murder of 10-year-old Nubia Barahona. Jorge Barahona also faces attempted murder charges in Palm Beach County for a case connected to Nubia’s twin, Victor, who was found in 2011 clinging to life near Nubia’s body inside Barahona’s pesticide truck on Interstate 95 in Palm Beach County. Both sides agreed Tuesday to the exchange of additional information. The trial, scheduled to start last month, has been delayed until at least fall.
