Colmenares Case

Luis Andres Colmenares was found dead in a drainage ditch in Virrey Park after attending a party at a nightclub with his girlfriend Laura Moreno and best friend Jessy Quintero. An autopsy initially ruled it an accident, but his family later exhumed the body and found injuries that were not reported, reopening the case. There are several theories for what happened, including that Laura's ex-boyfriend killed Luis out of jealousy or that her father killed him for racial reasons, as Luis was Afro-Colombian. The case remains unsolved and has affected all those involved.
