Background on the Case and Key Players
In a recent development, Cristopher “N,” also known as “El Comandante,” has been indicted for the homicide of Colombian musicians Bayron Sánchez Salazar (B-King) and Jorge Luis Herrera Lemus (DJ Regio Clown). Their bodies were discovered on September 17 in Cocotitlán, Estado de México.
The Fiscalía General de Justicia del Estado de México (FGJEM) reported that after the initial hearing, a judge deemed the evidence presented by the prosecution sufficient to initiate a criminal process against the accused. As a result, Cristopher “N” will remain in custody at a Mexico State penitentiary.
Accusations Against “El Comandante”
According to the investigation, Cristopher “N” allegedly coordinated the luring of victims through deception, exploiting his trust with one of them. The Fiscalía asserts that the accused participated in planning and logistics for the crime, acting in concert with others to ensure its outcome.
Investigators have determined that the victims were summoned to Mexico City, transported to another location where they were killed, and then abandoned in Cocotitlán with the intent to mislead investigations. The cause of death, according to official autopsies, was external hemorrhaging from cutting and puncture wounds.
Broader Context: Drugs, Extortion, and Kidnapping
The case against “El Comandante” is part of a larger investigation involving 16 individuals, including Colombian, Venezuelan, Cuban, and Spanish nationals, linked to the distribution of synthetic drugs (such as Tusi or “2-CB”), extortion (“gota a gota”) type, kidnapping, and unlawful detention.
The Fiscalía stated that the musicians were hired for clandestine events called “Sin Censura,” where narcotics were sold, and promoters connected to criminal groups participated.
One of the leaders of this network, identified as “El Pantera,” allegedly ordered the murders due to supposed conflicts arising from their drug business.
Charges and Penalties
The charge of aggravated homicide is outlined in articles 241, 242 fraction II, and 245 fraction V b) of the Mexico State Penal Code. If found guilty, Cristopher “N” could face up to 70 years in prison.
It’s important to note that, according to the law, the accused is considered innocent until a definitive sentence is issued against them.
