The state is seeking the death penalty against Roderick Cooper, 23; Carla Joan Simmons, 24, Commerce; and Torrell McGarrett Young, 34.
Paul Rucker was killed in September 2005.
His body was found in his home on Georgia 326 in Banks County.
A fourth person charged in the case - Donald Murphy Jr., 21, Arcade - has pleaded guilty and is expected to testify against the others.
Authorities said at the time of the incident they believed Rucker was the victim of a home invasion.
