Santa Barbara County prosecutors haven't decided whether to seek the death penalty.
Haobsh is jailed and it's unclear whether he has a lawyer.
Prosecutors say the 26-year-old Haobsh shot Dr. Weidong "Henry" Han, his wife and daughter in their multimillion-dollar home on the outskirts of Santa Barbara. Their bodies were found wrapped in plastic.
Authorities say the two men had been involved in a business deal and financial gain could have been a motive in the slayings.
