Treat the turn bet as an information/value bet. Since at least one of your opponents probably has you beat, you can now safely fold out of this smallish pot once it's re-raised back to you.

I think folding the turn would be bad.

Ii thought this line was about folding the river after the turn. Folding the turn would be horrible.

My first thought was he probably hit his set of 5s on the turn.

Take all possible hands into account when someone makes a very strong move on the turn. 3 betting is a very strong move. Especially check 3 betting. You don't see too many opponents use this with lesser hands.

Put yourself in their shoes and see what they're seeing of their opponents. One guy is still betting, UTG just woke up and raised which usually indicates at least a turned 2 pair, usually a flopped set. The BB isn't in position to do a free showdown raise, he has to have something good to blast with in this spot. Notice he's also in a spot where he's fully expecting to get called.
