"Murder most foul": Police In Puerto Rico Investigate Murder Of Military Family | What's the Matter With Puerto Rico?


Published on Nov 20, 2014
Two men have been arrested and charged with first degree murder in the killings of a retired U.S. army sergeant and three of his family members in Puerto Rico.

Sixty-seven year old Miguel Ortiz Diaz, his wife and his mother-in-law were fatally shot at their home in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico late Monday, Fox News Latino reported.

The assailants kidnapped Ortiz’s two sons after the shooting and took them to a field in Guaraguao neighborhood where the elder son was shot to death, El Comercio reported.

The assailants reportedly ran out of bullets when they tried to kill Ortiz’s younger son. So they stabbed him and threw him over a bridge, according to El Comercio. Miraculously, the 13-year-old boy survived the attack and later sought help.

Police said the murders were carried out by people who were renting a house from Ortiz and were facing eviction after they failed to pay rent, Fox News Latino reported.

SAN JUAN (Reuters) - Police in Puerto Rico are investigating the execution-style murders of a retired U.S. Army officer and three members of his family during a Monday night attack on their gated suburban community home, officials said.
A suspect was in custody and police said the killings may have been in reprisal for an attempt to evict tenants from a rental home the family owned.
Police identified the victims as Miguel Ortiz Díaz, 66, his wife Carmita Uceda Ciriaco, 45, his mother-in-law Clementina Ciriaco López, and his 15-year-old son Miguel Ortiz Uceda.
Another 13-year-boy, also a son of the victims, survived and is under police protection and receiving medical care, Police Superintendent Jose Caldero said in a radio interview.
The murders were the seventh multiple killing in Puerto Rico this year, police said.
The attack took place in the gated Frailes community of Guaynabo, just west of San Juan.
The suspect in custody was arrested early Tuesday in Bayamon, where Ortiz Diaz’s rental house is located, according to police.
Caldero described the crime scene as “macabre,” saying Ortiz Diaz, who retired from the U.S. Army as a sergeant first class, was gagged and shot to death against a sofa in the living room, while the two women were made to kneel down nearby and then shot.
Police believe the suspects attempted to kill the minors as well, but kidnapped them when their weapons failed. Caldero told reporters that the older son was killed in transit and his body dumped by the side of a road.
The attackers apparently ran out of bullets when attempting to kill the 13-year-old boy, he said, so they beat him and then threw him off a bridge, leaving the boy for dead.
The boy survived, managing to alert a neighbor and then police about what had occurred.

2 Charged in Killing of 4 Relatives in Guaynabo

Two men have been charged with fi rst-degree
murder in the killings of a retired Army sergeant
and three other family members, police
said Thursday.
Christopher Sánchez Asencio and José Bosch
Mulero, both 27, also face nearly 40 other counts,
including aggravated kidnapping of a minor and
destruction of evidence.
They were being held on $8 million bond
each.
The victims include 67-year-old Miguel Ortiz
Díaz, his wife, a 15-year-old son and his motherin-law.
They were fatally shot late Monday at their
home in the upscale city of Guaynabo, southwest of
the capital of San Juan. Police said a 13-year-old son
survived after being stabbed and thrown off a bridge
in the neighboring municipality of Bayamón.
It is unclear whether the suspects have attorneys,
although Bosch spoke briefl y to reporters on
Wednesday after he was arrested.
“To the boy who survived, I am truly sorry for
what happened,” he said.
Police have said they believe Ortiz was killed
by people who were renting a house he owned and
were facing eviction because they had fallen behind
on the rent.
The 13-year-old boy remains hospitalized and
is expected to recover as government offi cials debate
who should obtain custody of him. His mother
and grandmother had Peruvian citizenship, and
family members in Peru have expressed interest in
bringing him to the South American country.
Isadora Hernández, a spokeswoman for Puerto
Rico’s Department of State, said in a phone interview
that two Puerto Ricans have off ered to pay for
the fl ights and hotel of the victims’ family members
who live in Peru.
Ortiz had been a professor for nearly 20 years
at Puerto Rico’s American Military Academy, where
his sons also were enrolled.
The murders were the seventh multiple killing
in Puerto Rico this year, police said.

  1. My name is Blanca Payne . To cut a long story short I tried about 3 different spell casters over a period of 3 months and all they wanted was more & more money and kept coming up with excuses as to why the spell wasn’t working. Just when I was about to give up I came across several good testimonies of Dr. Oyinbo over the internet. I contacted him and he promised to restore my faith back into spell casters, that they are real and love spells do actually work. I was very sceptical after several scam spell casters. Mine wasn’t a simple spell but Dr. Oyinbo went above & beyond his way to look for extra money when extra work was required. Always called & txt on time. Replied to emails on time. Only asked for half the spell money as initial payment. My partner had walked out on me one day with no explanation …. I was devastated. When I was about to give up hope, Dr. Oyinbo words guided and encouraged me, and then he was back 3 days after the spell was cast. I recommend Dr. Oyinbo extremely highly. Dr.oyinbo you are a gifted man and I will not stop recommending him because he is a wonderful man. If you have a problem and you are looking for a real and genuine spell caster, Try him anytime, he is the answer to your problems. You can contact him on ( prophetoyinbojesus@yahoo.com or prophetoyinbojesus@yahoo.com) or call him +2348074066640. He is the best caster that can help you with your problems. He restored my faith and I AM FINALLY HAPPY.
