Thanks for not "sugar coating" your comments Bruce. Times are changing in Baja unfortunatley. It's still the best place on earth for me and my family, we just love spending time in our vacation house and staying active. Although, I just might have to start locking the doors at night.

People, please stay safe in your environment!

For what it's worth, I think you did the right thing by posting this information. You'd have been doing Nomads & others a disservice if you hadn't! I saw Capt Mike's post about the stolen airplane....is this a relatively new development, or has it been going on all along? One death & one intended death is horrendous for that area. Dumb question, but does Mulege have their own police, or is it served out of some other town? Does anyone have any leads for likely suspects?

Thanks Bruce,

We will still come down, and we will still visit Mulege, but it is good to know that we just have to be more cautious.

To not post this information would have been wrong.

Thank You, and I hope it is not deleted.

Bruce- please provide a few clues on this stuff


Bruce- I have tried today in Mulege to find someone who can provide any details on these two incidents. Why has none of the locals or gringos in town heard of any of this? Please provide dates and locations so I can seek details and substantiate this story. (email me directly if you wish to not expose the information here)

Others Echo Bruce's Concerns


As Bruce knows, I used to live in Mulege and I was devastated to have my boss at work tell me her daughter's friend is the grandson of the tourist who was murdered this past weekend.

While trying to get numbers and contacts for them as they are flying to Loreto tomorrow and then going up to Santa Rosalia where the grandfather's body is, I couldn't not think about how tragic that this family's introduction to Mulege will be due to such violence in a place that we all love.

Bruce's words, my daughter's Mexican family and other friends' sentiments make me sad that this place is being put on edge and questioning their safety.

The flood in September has already caused so much suffering...let's hope that this violence does not deepen...

Mood: My friends..it's good.

[*] posted on 11-13-2006 at 11:38 PM


that's crazy...I used to think the Catavinia are was pretty bad and that once you got past there it was just some petty theft that you had to be on guard for but this is a new level.

Can someone please post more details? was the person in the trailer in a desolate spot with no one else around? was it a popular location?

I know this won't make me very popular but I am all for being armed, being trained to use it, using it, and then getting the hell out of mexico as fast as I can and screw sticking around to report anything.

I support this absolutely - seems the guys in Uniform are useless, as I read just on another thread.
I'm a rather peaceful person, but when I've enough- I can be as mean as a rabid dog. :fire::mad:
And I think it's about time to take action, which way ever.
