Title: Mexico
Post by greggerypeccary on May 5^th, 2024 at 3:30pm

It's one of the countries on my bucket list that I haven't visited yet.

And this just reminds me why:

Perth brothers Callum and Jake Robinson went for a quick surf weekend in Mexico. How did it go so wrong?

It was meant to be an idyllic surf adventure down Mexico's north-west coast. :'(

Let's see whether it was a random crime or a cocaine deal gone bad.

Knowing what I know about the two brothers, I'd bet my left testicle that it has nothing to do with a drug deal.

It was a robbery, and they paid with their lives.

Incredibly sad.

Yet weirdly, they found a third body in there. Then a forth body, but not related to the incidence of the two surfers.
Sounds like someone uses this as their killing field/burial hole.

It’s very sad about the two brothers. How both came to be deceased when they look fit young and strong…
Then again… the mention of the campfire means it must’ve been at night and probably a surprise attack?

Add edit: the third deceased person was their American friend.
The perps have been caught and charged… something about a bungled robery?

Oh, and I’ve never wanted to go to Mexico… even though I know some had gone there and absolutely loved it. Still…..not on my bucket list.

From what I understand they were big boys. Probably used to standing up for themselves forgetting that in some parts of Mexico life is cheap
