I do not know the whole story of Jimmy Hicks(James Russell Hicks), But I know what happened here.
Apparently Hicks came here with his girlfriend. They first ended up at Coyote Beach with this nice RV. From what I have heard, from the people that were there Hicks and his girlfriend or another woman were at Coyote for a few days. A persons house which I will not name had Hicks come in and Hicks apparently drunk and threatened them with death. The next day the woman and Hicks left Coyote Beach and drove down the road to Buenaventura. They were here for a day or two and parked in a large modern RV. I believe on the second day a Mexican couple who knew Olivia were staying in the hotel. They walked to our restaurant in the morning telling us there was this woman screaming through the window of the RV at man outside all the while throwing clothes and such out the window at the man. The woman driving the RV with Florida plates then drove off not to be seen here again.

This man then walked to the hotel and evidently made arrangements to stay there. This man was Jimmy(James Russell Hicks) of Florida. Evidently he quickly made friends with the persons in the hotel. At the time Munoz offered free tequila out of a barrel. I think Jimmy took advantage of this opportunity.

---I would like to say that I think the only reason free tequila was offered to persons was cause problems for the restaurant. Before the Hicks incident a least two patrons of the Hotel were asked to leave the restaurant because they were so drunk from drinking the free tequila at the hotel.

Jimmy Hicks came over the first evening with an employee of the hotel sitting at a far away table in the restaurant. He approached the bar where 5 Americans are sitting. Mark is behind the bar. Jimmy is obviously very drunk. Being loud and obnoxious he says he wants to buy everyone a shot of tequila. Everyone declined the offer!---Don't see this happen too much!-- I then asked him to please sit with me at the table with the young Mexican man who was a worker in the hotel. I explained we did not want any problems with him bringing a worker from the hotel. The young mexican man was very nervous. Jimmy kept asking for beer and more tequila which I denied more service. Finally after Olivia sat and talked with the Young Mexican man explaining that since he worked in the hotel we would appreciate the distance and to please respect us due to the conflict with Munoz. JImmy and the young man left. Fifteen to thirty minutes passes and James Russell Hicks shows at the bar. His shirt is now off and he is screaming at what a terrible place this is. Again I am asking him to please leave. Jimmy insults the men and soon the women are off the bar stools in Jimmy's face! Jimmy then reaches into his pocket and pulls a lock blade knife out of his pocket and opens it. At this time I go to the house and get some special seasoning pepper spray. By the time I return Jimmy was yelling "give me back my knife"! What had happened was that Jimmy tried to stab one person in the chest. The knife was knocked out of his hand with a stick called a cue. Hicks then tried to throw an employee through the window, which he was unsuccessful with. He then was subdued. He might have hit his head on the floor. When I came in I told him to leave now or I would season him. He screamed he wanted his knife back which was on the floor. I told him he could get it back from the police. He took a step towards me and he got seasoned. He did leave then, walking back to the hotel. Olivia then calls the Mulege police and they say they will come manana. She pleads with them to come now but they say they do not have gas. We clean up a bit but leave the knife where it lay. Later that night two state police show up and say Hicks was kind of beat up and smelled like pepper. We showed them the knife which they picked up and put in a plastic bag we gave them. Told the state police the story and we had five witnesses who were at the bar. We are asked to go to Mulege the next day with the witnesses. We agreed and showed at the Ministero Publico the next day with all the witnesses. James Russell Hicks is there very drunk with Eddie from the hotel. James Russell Hicks was sitting in a chair pretending he was shooting a rifle at us again and again in front of the authorities. I ask the police how can they allow him to testify in a drunken state. They shrug their shoulders and tell me it is the DA's decision. She is going to allow. They finally did make him turn in the chair and face the wall. Now we have had real problems with this one DA. She is there in person trying to get testimony that Mark and Olivia were the ones causing harm. Nearly all the reports Munoz has made against us comes from this one DA. Maybe some of you know her. Overweight lady that travels with her mother. Appears to drive a new truck every year. For some reason this DA does not like us. She asked one of our employees to just say that Olivia and Mark were behind it. We all gave our testimony which is suppose to be free but were instructed to pay 100 dollars for each testimony because there was paper work. Four testimonies costs us 400 dlls. I tried to ask questions about the charge for testimony, but everyone had the creeps and wanted to just get out.

Jimmy Hicks stayed at the hotel for months. He shriveled up into this scrawny man apparently from drinking and other things. Finally after maybe six months he was gone. Munoz and employees were saying Jimmy had died and we had killed him, but it appears he is very much alive living in Florida getting DUI's for drugs and alcohol shows proof that he is alive!.

I am allowing Mr, Jimmy Rusell Hicks to write:

Mr. James Russell Hicks and the Incident at Olivia’s Restaurant Otober, 2006
My name is James Russell Hicks, I was born in Chattanwoa, Tennessee, I am 64 years old and a veteran. My girlfriend and I were travelling to Baja in Mexico and enjoying vacations. We saw the hotel on the way going south and saw the beauty surrounding of the place, so we decided to stop. The hotel’s name was San Buenaventura. I believe the date we stopped at this place was on October the 20th or the 22nd in 2006.
We were staying for a couple of days when because I was treated with excellence, I invited three of the employees with me to eat supper. We walked over the restaurant and I was drinking beer but was not drunk. We went into the restaurant, but we were not served because I was accompanied by people that worked in the hotel and they were called dirty Mexicans. I asked why? “ I am paying for the service”. At this point, the workers from the hotel left and I stood there because I wanted to know the reason why we were not served. They started to conduct in a nasty attitude and said “I do not need your money”. Arguments started, and then the people from the restaurant began to threaten me. I was still inside the restaurant and there were 7 to 8 people inside as well, one of them was a woman, another was a Mexican and the rest were Americans. I believe the woman was the owner of the restaurant and one of them seems to be her husband which was an American too. Several of them attacked me, punches came from all over, heard the woman’s voice saying “kill him, kill him several times. At first, I just saw the same amount of people that were in the restaurant (7-8), they surrounded me; the Mexican guy was behind me and hit me with a pool stick. He hit me twice then the pool stick broke. Right after the Mexican guy hit me, several of the other people started to hit aand kik me on the floor. I could not defend myself because I was unable to see; my face and my eyes were full of blood. I learned later that the restaurant’s employee was the one who hit me and the owner’s husband a tall well fit American guy was carrying a large knife weapon (machete type), but do not recalled if he hit me because they were all punching me at the same time but I had several large cuts from a machete. The woman kept saying “kill him, kill him” many times. I also learned she was also the owner of the restaurant. I also learned later that I had several cuts in my head that were not done by a pool stick and a machete. I think the name of the owner is Maria Olivia, Higuera Aguilar and her husband Mark jerome Burbey, and yes they were involved actively. This people kept saying nasty words to me while hitting me. The women continued to yelling “kill him, kill him”. When the punching was going on, I heard them saying to me a lot of threats but also to Mr. Muñoz liife, but do not remember exactly what was specifically said. I thought they were going to kill me. I could not defend myself, was not able to see from the blood all over my eyes, face, and head. They were killing me. After a while, I thought I heard one of the Americans saying “Stop, we are going to kill him”. I was hit by a pool stick, but rememebr Mark attacked me several times with the big knife (machete) while on the floor. The only thing I knew later was that I have three scars in my head and face; one scar three inches long on the right side of my head, another scar one inch long on the left side of my head, and a one inch long scar above right side of my eyebrow. Later, I also noticed that my ribs hurt badly, I could not move, every part of my body was in real pain. They injured my head, face, and ribs. Right after the beating, they threw me out into a stream of water close to the beach and again my ribs were in a nasty pain. I yelled for help, people from the hotel heard me and came over, they themselves also heard how the woman was yelling “kill him, kill him”. They rescued me and took me to the hospital right away. Doctors did stitches on my injuries. I was taken to several doctors. After I was treated for the injuries we went to the authorities to report the incident, and then went back to the hotel. The people from here let me stay to heal up. While healing up I got very sick, went out of balance many times until the people from the hotel had to take me to the Sta. Rosalia hospital. Here, I stood for two or three weeks until my family got me flown to the USA hospital. I was diagnosed with infected ribs as well as the whole body. A rib was removed from me. I thought my life was in real danger with this people. Because I needed to be treated first I had to go with the authorities after the hospital and doctors assistance. I made a report and asked to be handcuff because I was afraid what I might do. The restaurant owners, the employee, and two other Americans from the fight were present at the police station. I made a lawsuit to this people, the owner of the hotel Mr. Rafael Munoz Martinez helped me finding Mexican lawyer’s assistance. Since my stay in the hotel to heal up, I was never called to testify and as of now have not been in court. Mr. Rafael Munoz Martinez always had contact with me and my family. Since that time, consequences have appeared on my body. My ribs were infected, as well as all my body. I had major surgery and a rib was removed. I stay in the USA hospital for two months, bills were up to $200,000 Dlls. Overall, I stood at the hotel for eight months for free after the incident.
Anyone who want to hear this story from me, can do it, I will be at the San Buenaventura Hotel for a couple of months and I will see that justice is done with the help of the American Embasy.
During those events, Mr. Muñoz was not at the hotel, I met him at a later date but by phone he ordered his employees to help me in every way possible with no regard to cost and they did certainly.

Anyone who want to contact Jimmy to verify his story, can do it at the Hotel Buenaventura in Bahia Concepcion Mulege; he is also going to send me his story recorded on video, but the video is too big to be posted here, but we will get some pictures from the movie to be posted, but I do not think that now, anybody doubt Jimmy´s story.
We are making arrangements to see the Governor and the Estate District attorney to see that Jimmy´s case is given the just treatment and also the criminals involved be prosecuted the right way.
I do not think that any people here would like to be in Jimmy´s place, drunk or not drunk, the viciousness of those people is evident

We are not hearing from a native English speaker, although the writer is obviously educated. The spelling and vocabulary are excellent, but there are several issues with verb conjugation and the use of idioms, prepositions, and abbreviations.

Some examples:

“My girlfriend and I were travelling to Baja in Mexico and enjoying vacations.”

“saw the beauty surrounding of the place”

“We were staying for a couple of days when because I was treated with excellence,”

“They started to conduct in a nasty attitude”

“one of them seems to be her husband which was an American too.”

“the Sta. Rosalia hospital”

“bills were up to $200,000 Dlls.”


I could go on, there are many of these... (yes, I’m a teacher, and I teach ELD daily).

edited to add: ELD is English Language Development. It is geared to non-native speakers. Most of the English Language Learners in my district are from Mexico, so that is the focus of most of our Professional Development.

Rafael, obviously people will need proof that James Russell Hicks wrote the statement you have provided here. May I suggest that James Russell Hicks provide answers to the following questions:

#1 In what city and state did you last live?
#2 What are the names of your children?
#3 Is your father still alive?
#4. If so, how old is he.
#5. Where does he live? City and State.
#6. Can you log onto a computer and answer questions here in this forum?

That is all for now. We may need some additional questions answered.

Thank you.

Munoz I just don't get it with you.

How do you think you will ever get Buenaventura?

Let's just hint that maybe you or someone you know were behind the turtle soup here. Let's just hint that maybe you or someone you know are behind putting drugs in our business. Let's just suspect that maybe you are behind these anonymous phone calls reporting drug unloading bringing in the military on a wild goose chase. Lets say for sure you are behind all the complaints to the Ministero Publico.



How do you think you could ever obtain and keep Buenaventura. Even if Olivia and Mark were not here you still would not get the property from the Ejido. What would you even do if you had it.....run it like a business. Just look at the shambles the hotel is in. The place is a mess around the hotel and the houses too. You have broken into some of the homes and ransacked. You would not be able to sell because of your reputation, so what is the deal with you? How would you run it as a business? With your reputation here and north baja, how could you get investors?



Please explain how with your two different titles from different states you could even obtain Buenaventura. Please explain your reasoning, because after all these years I just don't get it with you.



I wish you had something. Some kind of paperwork that I could believe in. That would make it more believable for me and for others.



You seem so possessed with this place.

Please explain how with all these mischievous things you do to us you could obtain and keep Buenaventura.
I JUST DON'T GET IT?

How many different people use your sign on name? some posts in spanglish. some in third person. You are going to "season" people in one post and in the last post you are obviously referring to the situation in third person.
