EP126: The Murder Of Mark Kilroy

Crime talk timestamp-13:45On March 14th 1989 Mark Kilroy, a 21 year old University of Texas at Austin student, suddenly went missing when he was separated from friends after leaving a bar. He had been having a great time letting his hair down whilst enjoying his spring break holiday in Matamoros, Mexico. Just like thousands of other tourists do each year.Mexican & US law enforcement were quickly worried that Mark's unusual disappearance was suspicious & could be down to foul play. But this suspicion didn't even scratch the surface of the truth that was to come or what fate really had befallen Mark.As they actually had no idea what nightmarish horrors their investigations were just about to expose.... Because yes Mark had indeed met with foul play, he had unknowingly crossed paths with some incredibly dangerous members of a violent drug trafficking operation.  However it was much worse than that. These men were also members of 'Los Narcosatánicos' a terrifying & deadly cult that involved drug trafficking whilst at the same time practised rituals of black magic & human sacrifice inspired by 'Palo Mayombe'.As police search an isolated Mexican ranch what they discover there was just so terrifying, so unbelievable, & so gruesome that it shocked & sickened even the most seasoned of investigators. Whilst searching for one victim they end up finding the dismembered remains of at least 16 people. All of whom had been tortured & murdered as human sacrifices in these black magic rituals. Todays case shows that no matter how many other tourists are around or how busy the fun bars you visit are, hidden amongst the party goers real danger could be watching & lurking.Sadly this was the case for Mark Kilroy as his night on vacation led to him being kidnapped by a deadly cult & taken to their leader Adolfo Constanzo aka 'The Godfather' or 'The Devil Of Mexico'. A man as charming & charismatic as he was dangerous & evil....This is episode 126: The Murder Of Mark Kilroy  Sources: Wikipedia / Texas archive.org/ Texas monthly.com / worlds deadliest killers YouTube / Sacrifice by Jim Kilroy and Bob Stewart / MarkKilroyfoundation.org / www.independent.co.
