Matias Jurado, the Argentine serial killer who killed on Fridays
"When police raided the home of Matias Jurado on July 31 in one of the largest neighborhoods of San Salvador de Jujuy, the provincial capital, they had no idea they would be dealing with a suspected serial killer. Security forces arrived in search of Jorge Omar Anachuri, a 68-year-old man with a motor disability who had disappeared a week earlier."
"Jurado, 37, had a criminal record for aggravated robbery and threatening to use weapons during a robbery. His neighbors in the Alto Comedero neighborhood, one of the largest in the capital of Jujuy, knew him as El Gringo and claimed he liked to walk around with a machete in his hand and abused alcohol. Everyone describes him as a very violent person, but no one believed he could reach this level, said prosecutor Guillermo Beller in his latest press conference on the case."
Police raided Matias Jurado's home on July 31 in San Salvador de Jujuy while searching for a missing 68-year-old man and found traces of blood, bones, and skin. Jurado, 37, is in custody accused of murdering and dismembering at least five people and possibly more. Genetic samples collected at the home confirmed a fifth victim as Juan Carlos Gonzalez, 60, missing since June 11. Jurado had prior convictions for aggravated robbery and threats, and neighbors described him as violent, often carrying a machete and abusing alcohol. Investigators report two incomplete profiles for possible additional victims.
