    José Castillo (police officer)

    José del Castillo Sáez de Tejada or José Castillo (29 June 1901, Alcalá la Real 12 July 1936, Madrid) was a Spanish Police Guardia de Asalto (Assault Guard) lieutenant during the Second Spanish Republic. His murder by four Falangist gunmen on July 12, 1936 led to a sequence of events that helped precipitate the Spanish Civil War.

    Early life and military career

    José Castillo was the son of a lawyer of liberal political views. His mother came from an aristocratic family and was distantly related to General Miguel Primo de Rivera (Spanish dictator 1923–30). After attending school in Granada, Castillo entered the Infantry Officers' Academy in Toledo, in 1919. After graduation he became a junior officer in the 1st Regulares (Moroccan colonial troops). He saw active service in the Rif War, rising to the rank of Lieutenant. In 1925 he transferred to a Peninsular regiment of regular infantry,

    Under the Republic

    Following the overthrow of the Monarchy in 1931, José Castillo was appointed to the newly raised Assault Guards, a para-military force intended to maintain security in urban areas and provide a counterweight to the long established and conservative Guardia Civil. Officers of the Asaltos were selected for their perceived loyalty to the new Republic.

    Famous quotes by Jose Castillo:

    "It's a new year. It was time to do something different."
    "I was really happy with the year I had. I showed a lot more power than I did (as a rookie). I think I showed that I can hit some home runs at the major-league level."
    "It makes me mad that I missed so much time. I never had any big injuries in the minor leagues. I thought I was having a really good year and it was tough to have to sit out that last month or so of the season. I wanted to keep improving and helping the team."
    "I've been working out every day and I feel very strong. I'm ready to go."
    "It would be great to play in it."
    "The doctors checked on my knee, and they said it's good. I feel pretty good right now. I'm ready to play."
    "The Pirates don't want me to go, so I'm not going. That's OK. This is more important, being here and getting ready for the season."
    "I felt good. I'm happy because I got a hit and was able to [score] on the hit. My knees and leg felt very good."
    "People know they can find any kind of worker here."
    "I feel really good right now. I really worked to get ready for this season."
