On September 17th, Colombian artist Bayron Sánchez, or B King, and Jorge Luis Herrera, also known as Regio Clown, were added to the list of missing persons after visiting a gym in Mexico City, the Polanco neighborhood.
According to the manager of B King, the men had communicated with him earlier in the day prior to the end of contact, the men had uploaded their workout on social media after which they suddenly stopped communicating. They turned off their phones at night and suddenly everyone started to be concerned.
Discovery of the Bodies
The bodies of the two musicians were discovered a few days later with their heads cut off and in black plastic bags by Mexican officials. There were three other bodies in the same scene that illustrated the severity of the violence. The victims were identified by the families of the victims who went to Mexico after this tragedy. The case attracted international attention, with Colombian President Gustavo Petro calling the killing an indicator of more fundamental failures ofanti-drug policy. He encouraged Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to work more closely to fight against organized crime.
Arrest of an Influencer, Angie Miller.
Angelica Yetsey Torrini Leon, a Venezuelan social media personality who goes by the name Angie Miller, was arrested on September 23 by the Mexican National Anti-Kidnapping Unit of Tlalnepantla de Baz. Miller himself is a model with a large number of followers on social media and a frequent user of paid platforms like OnlyFans; it could be that he was simply one of the last people to have been in contact with B King before the disappearance.
Even though her actual participation in the killings cannot be definitively established, the police have called Miller before them to give testimony in the case. The local media houses have been implying that she was the lover of B King. Soon after he went missing, Miller went to Instagram to request him to come back safely, a post that is currently receiving close attention by the detectives.
Organized Crime Groups
At the crime scene law enforcers discovered a message that was associated with the La Familia Michoacana, a well-known cartel in Mexico that deals drugs, commits killings and extortions. Authorities believe that the killings could be linked to cartel activity but they are yet to figure out the real motive.
