Eduardo Antonio Almario Martinez en Daniel Alejandro Almario Calderon werden vermoord op 24 januari 2013, Amaury Manuel Saez Coronado werd verminkt en vermoord aangetroffen op 7 maart 2013 nadat hij op 4 februari was verdwenen, Jorge Juan Gomez Guerrero werd vermoord op 28 februari 2013, Jhonny Alberto Balarezo Ortiz werd vermoord op 1 maart en Diego Luis Garcia Gonzalez werd vermoord op 21 maart.
