Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=Hillbilly69;1287222]Not sure if was a hit or robbery, if it was a hit I would hate to be the dude that sent him the threatening letters, I would be packing up my homemade bongs and heading back to California, but yea like you said could just be a neighborhood boss that didn't approve of him bringing gringos to his territory. Definately not a good idea to be a high profile gringo, what was the head count in Cali? 3 dudes murdered who ran marriage agencies, hazardous to a persons health to be a Matchmaker , guide or Pimp in Colombia.[/QUOTE]Don't know if it is true but I heard it was a girl that pulled the trigger.

[QUOTE=Manizales911;1287226]Don't know if it is true but I heard it was a girl that pulled the trigger.[/QUOTE]Someone who spoke with MP's novia (Monica) says it was a chica that shot him 4 times.

I would say 2 or 3 for sure "Guides aka pimps" have been assassinated in Cali.

1 I knew personally Walter was a Colombian who lived in NYC and got deported and did the "guide aka pimp, marriage agency, dating service bla bla bla, was killed in front of tienda vieja in front of his 10yr old daughter after dinner. 2 sicarios on a moto. 1 does the dirty work and the other hauls ass driving the moto. AFTER this the old man from Cali charm closed up shop. Another gringp with an "agency" got swiss cheesed up on the way to the airport.

Colombia: HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW and YES PEOPLE just like that!

Damn I never met him personally, but I talked to him on the phone a couple of times. He seem like a really happy person. I was suppose to meet up with him in July. I don't know anymore.

Like I said someone sent Medellin Paisa threatening letters , MP posted them on his Facebook Page, too far back to find.

I am getting old my memory is getting bad.[/QUOTE]Robert Berge, Jack Off Jake, Medellin Paisa, gringos like this etc etc, You could not pay me ENOUGH to even stand next them by accident in the check-out line at Exito. Forget it! But hey, that's just me.

I thought he was the greatest guy, but once he started on that marching powder he turned into the worlds biggest A hole. When he mixed that and fire water, he had heavy illusions of grandeur, fascinated and fixed on Pablo Escobar. My last straw with him was he told me he was going to cut my throat over not wanting to loan him 200, 000 when he was drunk, because I thought I would never see again. Not for nothing it's not being high profile it's talking enough shit to enough different people until one time just one time someone punches your ticket. Monica my love so sorry for your loss I think the world of you. I loved him when he was Jolly and straight but when he was on that shit boy was he a asshole. Shot dead by a female assasin at midnight in a bar somewhere four bullets. Rest in peace.

If what Bbrocs posted is correct and he was running wild with the Coke it makes perfect sense. Drunk or Coke-up / Fucked-up Dbags in the US get beat and bounced out of bars. Apparently in Colombia these sorts of guys get dealt with in a more vicious way.

Life is still cheap in South America! Don't sleep guys! Be mindful of how you carry yourself and how other may be hating on you.

It is a true pity to see MP go out like this. He had his issues but he knew how to take care of you. Once he spent the whole night with us in the hospital, when my buddy fell sick and had to be treated. I was planning a trip this winter again to Medellin but don't know if I would. I read on other blogs about a female shooting him 4 times in the head while he was sitting in the restaurant with a client. Can anyone confirm this?

Yes, maybe I only saw one side also, but he was always good to me and to my knowledge he was very protective and adored Monica. I'm pretty sure he didn't have any children and I don't recall him saying much about family in New York.

Medellin paisa, a gringo who cracked the paisa code, he was a witty funny mother fucker we spoke many times about life and Medellin. A real jersey guy. Inside he was a good man. He wanted to be respected and admired like all of us. He was a very intelligent man with good street smarts. Something went wrong maybe not his fault maybe so. He made an impact in alot of positive ways. Enjoy life while we can.

I heard it was a dispute over the medellinpaisa.com domain name

I talked to him on facebook and wanted to hire him until his rate went up from 100k to 160k per day for 4 hours, I really didn't think it was worth it. When I refused his services and even offered 100. 000 COP for the time he wasted with me on facebook, he told me that he will put a moto outside my apartment for reasons best known to him. I really thought he was kidding but now I see it might have been different. I feel sorry for the guy and his girlfriend, hope she can bear her loss.

I can't express how shocked and saddened I am by this hideous news. I employed MP's services for two days earlier this month on my first trip to the city of eternal spring, missing the second day due to sheer exhaustion on my part, stemming from the fact that I arrived in Medellin completely exhausted in the first place. The one day I spent with MP, christ, his name was Noah, was an absolute hoot, one of the best days I have ever had while traveling the world. It was a true learning experience, indeed, and the party Noah arranged for me later that night at my apartment was fabulous. He introduced me to one of the hottest and coolest ladies I have ever met, and I ended up "wifing up" with her for the rest of my trip. He deserves a ton of credit for making my first trip to this fabulous city a complete success. I've been a little hesitant writing a trip report because I essentially spent the bulk of my trip somewhat successfully fighting off a cold and wifing up with one lady only. If it weren't for Noah, my vacation might have ultimately turned into a disaster. I'm in very good shape and in very good health, but I hit Medellin completely wiped out and sleep-deprived from trying to get enough stuff done at work to not feel guilty taking over a week off.

Despite how I felt, I did manage to learn the Metro on my own and see some of the city on my own. Nonetheless, I emailed Noah just a few days ago to book his services for three additional days on my return trip in late October. Yes, he definitely impressed me as a "brujo loco" and a gregarious "wild man", but I enjoyed his spirit and enjoyed his company. I am truly bummed!
