Officials find 13th victim
Drug cult member leads authorities to grave
BROWNSVILLE (AP) — A mem
ber of a drug cult that believed kill
ing people protected themselves
from harm dug up the body of a
13th victim Thursday, while officials
continued an international search
for the group’s leaders.
Five suspects in custody for the bi
zarre slayings that were discovered
Tuesday on a ranch near Matamo-
ros, Mexico, just across the border
from here, said they killed at the de
mand of Adolfo de Jesus Constanzo.
During a dramatic public confes
sion Wednesday, the suspects said
the 26-year-old Constanzo, who they
called “godfather,” and Sara Maria
Aldrete, 24, called the “witch,” be
lieved human sacrifices gave the
members of cult protection from
harm.
U.S. authorities beefed up their
search for Constanzo and Aldrete
Thursday.
Mexican police took one suspect,
Sergio Martinez, to the ranch, and
he pointed out the site where a 13th
body was buried. Police then gave
him a pick and a shovel and had him
dig the body up himself.
“You’ll do it with your hands if
you have to,” one officer told Marti
nez.
The body of a man in his 30s was
quickly revealed. Martinez said the
man had been buried about four
months ago.
Twelve bodies were found in nine
graves on the ranch Tuesday.
Among the victims was Mark Kilroy,
MOSCOW (AP) — A commission
is investigating whether soldiers
used shovels to beat nationalist dem
onstrators in Soviet Georgia during
a clash in which 19 people died, a
government spokesman said Thurs
day.
In the Georgian capital of Tbilisi,
scene of the Sunday confrontation,
an estimated 2,000 people marched
through the streets for the first fu
neral for one of the victims, psychia
trist Zia Djinjaradze, 42, according
to a local human rights activist.
Pravda, the Communist Party da-
a 21-year-old University of Texas
pre-medical student who was kid
napped on the streets of Matamoros
last month during spring break.
Sheriffs Lt. George Gavito said
that Constanzo, a Cuban, who has
contacts in Miami and may be head
ing there, was last seen in
Brownsville on Tuesday.
A warning that Constanzo and Al
drete mighting be heading for South
Florida was read to Metro-Dade po
lice officers Thursday at roll calls,
but “at this time we’re not taking any
active stance on it,” Detective Marie
Chaney said.
Constanzo’s family was known to
live in a middle-class neighborhood
in the Miami area police by Metro-
Dade from the late 1970s to 1984,
but the FBI and Metro-Dade police
refused to say whether the agencies
are staking out any area locations
tied to the case.
“At this point, I can’t respond to
any question on that,” FBI spokes
man Paul Miller said.
Gavito said the marijuana smug
gling business provided comfort for
Constanzo and Aldrete.
“They had wealthy a lifestyle, buy
ing ’89 Mercedes, cash and all kinds
of luxury cars and telephones and
clothing,” Gavito said.
Officials said that Aldrete, a resi
dent alien from Mexico, also led two
lives.
“Apparently, Sara was leading a
double life: as a witch in Mexico and
as a dean’s honor roll student at
ily, reported Georgian activists have
changed their tactics in the face of
Soviet troops keeping order in Tbi
lisi, and are handing out hand
written leaflets to press for a general
strike. But a Soviet official said all of
Tbilisi’s enterprises were working.
The Georgian Communist Party’s
ruling Politburo met Thursday, but
details of the session were not imme
diately available. Local party chief
Dzhumber I. Patiashvili offered to
resign Tuesday after accepting re
sponsibility for Sunday’s events.
Texas Southmost College,” Sheriffs
Deputy Carlos Tapia said.
Texas Southmost College is a 2-
year community college in
Brownsville with an enrollment of
6,500.
Aldrete was physical education
major and was one of 33 students
listed in the college’s “Who’s Who”
directory in 1987-88. “Who’s Who”
members are nominated by faculty,
have a grade point average of at least
3.0 and are active in campus organi
zations.
She was also president of the col
lege’s soccer booster club that year
and recipient of the “Outstanding
Physical Education Student” award.
During the current session, Aldrete
was enrolled in 13 hours of courses,
including government, psychology,
physical education, Spanish and first
aid.
“We’re shocked and astounded
that this could go on, that a student
here could bin something like this,”
said Mike Gonzalez, a spokesman for
the school.
Cameron County Sheriffs offi
cials released photos of the Con
stanzo and Aldrete, describing them
as “extremely dangerous.”
A search of Aldrete’s home in
Matamoros revealed an altar and
blood-spatters, but no bones or bod
ies were found, said Gavito.
Of the five suspects who have
been arrested, four talked to report
ers Wednesday, two of them saying
that Constanzo committed most of
the slayings.
One of those was Serafin M. Her
nandez of Brownsville, who was a
law enforcement major at the com
munity college. He was enrolled in
two courses, “Criminal Investiga
tion” and “Introduction to Socio
logy,” at the school during the cur
rent session, according to school
records,
Mexican authorities also were
searching for Constanzo and Al
drete and three others believed in
volved in the slayings, said Oran
Neck, a Brownsville-based U.S. Cus
toms Service agent.
In Matamoros, the bodies of the
victims were still at funeral homes
waiting to be identified through
dental records because of the state of
decomposition, Neck said.
