There were five men all lived in either Yuba City or nearby Marysville. They all lived with their parents, and their parents knew all of the others in the group because they wanted to know who their kids were hanging out with. The parents referred to the five collectively as the boys.
The five men's favorite leisure activity was sports. Their families said that when they got together, it was usually to play a game or to watch one. They played basketball together in a team they had named the Gateway Gators. The team was sponsored by a local program for the mentally handicapped. When the boys didn't return home by morning the parents called the authorities.
