Suspected Killer Admits To Dozens of Murders After Mutilated Corpses Are Found In His Home (Mexico)

Kevin Dolak:

A 72-year-old man was arrested this week following the discovery of human remains under the floorboards of his home. He has confessed to killing as many as 30 people over the last two decades.

The suspect, identified only as "Andrs N," per Mexican privacy laws, was known colloquially as El Chino (The Chinese). He was arrested inside his home in the municipality of Atizapn de Zaragoza on Saturday for the killing of 34-year-old Reyna Gonzlez, who vanished on May 13. He is believed to have stabbed her and dismembered her body El Pais reported.

After his arrest, Andrs N. reportedly admitted to as many as 30 murders, the news agency Efe reported. Prosecutors in the State of Mexico, which includes Mexico City and much of its suburbs, said Wednesday that they have yet to determine the number of possible victims in the case, the Associated Press reported. According to Efe, he is being held at the Tlalnepantla Penitentiary and Social Reintegration Center.

The gruesome discovery of Gonzlez's hacked-up body on a bloody table came during the search for her in Las Lomas de San Miguel, a neighborhood on the western edge of Mexico City. Investigators jackhammered the floor and took apart a concrete structure on the common-access property, then forensics experts sifted through dirt to find evidence. DNA testing will be needed to determine how many victims Andrs N. may have killed over the years, prosecutors said.

He's being held in the Penitentiary side, and not the Social Reintegration Center half of Tlalnepantla.

From the article:

Femicides — defined as the murder of women because of gender — have plagued Mexico for decades. In 2019, approximately 35,000 women were murdered, according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies. The country began collecting data on femicides in 2012.

Activists say that femicides have become so pervasive that police no longer do much to prevent, investigate or prosecute the killings.

It’s a horror show and I’ll likely never be able to work safely in Mexico again.

This is the second big time serial killer of women captured in the last couple years in Edomex.
