Watching Soap Operas with the Repo Men:

Watching Soap Operas with the Repo Men; Credit: Unsplash When they kidnapped me the third time I remembered the coins in their mouths. The shape of a quarter pressed out against their cheeks. I like the way her hair smells, one of them said. Another smacked the man hard and said, we’re here to do a job not sample the merchandise. Back then we all used Johnson & Johnson’s baby shampoo, you know, the one that promised no more tears and we laughed because we were nothing if not mournful. Our home was a bank and sadness filled the vaults — but that’s not important now. What you need to know is that four men stood over my bed and apologized for what they were about to do. These were the kind of men who walked through your front door without masks because they already had a set of your keys. Consider us repo men, they said the first time, and you’re what we like to call collateral . One of them, who bore a remarkable resemblance to Tom Selleck in h...

A Family Murder in the Colombian Jungle;

A Family Murder in the Colombian Jungle; How the surrender of the FARC helped bring closure to a mystery Santa Marta | Stefanen Ator/Public Domain/Flickr Here is what I know for sure: Nearly 10 years ago, my aunt Adita was kidnapped from her home one morning in Santa Marta, a beach town on Colombia ’s Caribbean coast. Hours after her disappearance, she was found dead on the side of a dusty road in the nearby Sierra Nevada mountains. The violent murder of Adita Perez is one shrouded in mystery. Her kidnappers were mysteriously killed before questioning and no one was ever charged with her death. Some say she was killed on the side of the road and then set aflame (a gruesome version of the story I had grown up with). Others say Adita was killed in her home, rolled up in a carpet and dumped in the mountains. The theories surrounding why she was murdered are even more nuanced.
