Both men were taken to Jersey City Medical Center, where they were pronounced dead.
Daniels, who was previously charged with murder in Quintero’s death, now also faces a murder charge in Darby’s death.
Porter faces new charges of murder, felony murder and robbery in Darby’s death. Manning faces the same charges as an accomplice, prosecutors said.
All three defendants previously faced additional charges, including attempted murder and weapons offenses.
The new charges were filed after the regional medical examiner determined Darby died from stab or incised wounds to an upper extremity and a gunshot wound to the thigh. His death was ruled a homicide.
