Fears Serial Killer on the Loose as Three Women with Disturbing Similarities Murdered in Holiday Hotspot
- Three murdered women discovered in Puerto Vallarta within 11 days have prompted officials to investigate a possible serial killer, with the most recent victim found Thursday morning on a dirt road near Parque Las Palmas neighborhood off Camino Viejo a Mojoneras.
- Months after cartel violence tied to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel disrupted Puerto Vallarta in February following reports about cartel boss El Mencho's death, the city now confronts renewed violence concerns.
- All three victims appeared between 30 and 35 years old, were found partially undressed with multiple tattoos; local reports suggest one may be 22-year-old Elizabeth Martinez from the State of Mexico, reported missing in late April, with distinctive neck and arm tattoos.
- Investigators are reviewing surveillance footage, forensic evidence and police reports to determine whether the killings are connected, while authorities explore whether victims were killed elsewhere and their bodies abandoned in Puerto Vallarta.
- Travel industry officials advise heightened caution, with Fora Travel chief revenue officer Paul Tumpowsky urging visitors to "think about and plan a little bit more about what's the appropriate amount of risk you're willing to take," as the investigation threatens Puerto Vallarta's status as one of Mexico's most visited tourist destinations.
