    The mother who paid two million for revenge: The murder of Loara Tavares Rosario

    A 19-year-old architecture student was found wrapped in canvas with cement on a road in San Francisco de Macorís. Her face was disfigured; documents belonging to a woman who had been assaulted five days earlier lay next to her body. The impossible: the person who hired the crime almost went free for money.

    In this episode, we explore how stolen documents connected three criminals with a wealthy neighbor, how extreme cruelty revealed irrational hatred turned into a motive for homicide, and why a canvas with possible DNA was never analyzed despite the family's demands. The investigation exposes cracks in Dominican justice: a mastermind who requested parole after 14 years in prison while her victim never returned home.

    Victim: Loara Tavares Rosario
    Date: November 5, 2009
    Location: San Francisco de Macorís, Dominican Republic
    Status: Case closed; mastermind in prison (parole denied in 2023)

    - No bone in Loara's skull remained intact; stab wounds to her neck and chest inflicted while she was alive
    - María Magdalena Marizan Flores, a wealthy neighbor, showed a photograph of Loara to two hitmen in a Jeep and offered 2 million Dominican pesos
    - Yariel Rosario Ramos, 17 years old, confessed to being the material author but was released as an accessory under pressure from adults
    - El Guachi, the main hitman, received a 30-year sentence but died in an escape attempt in October 2012

  • Five Days of Silence: The Mystery of Carla and Jesús

    Five Days of Silence: The Mystery of Carla and Jesús
    Apr 23 2026
    Five Days of Silence: The Mystery of Carla and Jesús: The Murder of Carla Beiyot and Jesús Cañisaire in Bolivia

    At 4 AM on January 1, 2018, Carla posted a photograph with Jesús on Facebook. An hour later, they both sent New Year's messages to their families. At 8 AM, cameras captured them getting into a white taxi with five strangers. Nineteen days later, their bodies were found in burlap bags 150 meters deep.

    In this episode, we explore the contradictions that undermine the official narrative: the autopsy revealed that Carla died between 5 and 11 days after Jesús, implying a prolonged captivity that the group of killers never explained. The tracking of Jesús's cell phone chip in the possession of Joseline Quisbert triggered the arrests, but the central question remains: what happened to Carla during those unresolved days?

    Victims: Carla Beiyot and Jesús Cañisaire
    Date: January 1, 2018
    Location: La Paz, Bolivia
    Status: Sentenced - Israel and Elliot León, 30 years; Micaela León, Renzo Caseres, Stephanie Guisada, 30 years

    - The director of the FELCC publicly stated that the victims were asphyxiated, but the autopsy determined death by cranioencephalic trauma.
    - Carla was abused by three people - DNA evidence linked Israel, Renzo, and Elliot - while she remained in captivity.
    - The security cameras in Planta Baja were fake and decorative; the police took three days to raid the location where the taxi was last seen.
    - The iron pipe linked to the fatal blow was found at Israel's house, although Elliot worked as a bricklayer - shared responsibility without judicial clarification.
