The case of two Colombian artists in Mexico has raised lingering questions and left a deep impact. The timeline of their disappearance, the discovery of their bodies, and the reactions that followed have kept public attention focused on the story. Investigations are ongoing amid accusations, complaints, and messages that highlight a complex situation.

The musicians' disappearance not only caused uncertainty for their families but also prompted an official effort to locate them.

Initial reports about their whereabouts, combined with conflicting accounts, fueled confusion in both Mexico and Colombia. As days passed, the confirmation of the tragic news turned the case into a matter of international interest.

What happened to B King and DJ Regio Clown?

On September 22, the Mexico City Prosecutor's Office confirmed that the bodies of Bayron Sánchez Salazar, known as B King, and Jorge Luis Herrera Ramos, identified as DJ Regio Clown, had been found in Mexico.

Both were last seen on September 16 at a gym in Polanco, Mexico City. After that day, their families and representatives lost contact with them, and their disappearance was formally reported more than 24 hours later.

The official confirmation of their identity occurred after Sanchez's relatives recognized his body at the Tlalnepantla Regional Prosecutor's Office, while forensic experts conducted genetic profile comparisons to verify the findings.

How did the disappearance unfold?

On September 11, B King traveled from Medellin to Mexico accompanied by his manager, Juan Camilo Gallego. He arrived to perform at events celebrating Mexico's national holidays and shortly afterward met up with Regio Clown.

On September 16, both went to the Smart Fit gym on Presidente Masaryk Avenue, in Polanco. That same day, they told acquaintances that they planned to attend a lunch with several people. It was the last time they had contact with family and colleagues.

In a WhatsApp conversation revealed later, Regio Clown informed his partner that he would be meeting with a group of people, including someone nicknamed "el comandante" (the commander). In that chat he wrote: "I don't trust anyone", and later said "But there is business to be done." He also warned: "Only public places, love, obviously".

Where were the bodies found?

On September 17, local authorities found two bodies along the Mexico-Cuautla highway, near the municipality of Cocotitlan. The Mexico City Prosecutor's Office later confirmed that the bodies belonged to the two Colombian musicians.

Journalist Carlos Jiménez showed images of the site, describing it as a location "without lighting, without cameras, without surveillance... over an hour and a half from Polanco".

The Mexico City and Mexico prosecutors' offices have both opened investigations to determine the motive behind the crime and to reconstruct the victims' final hours. Watch here the video showing the location where the bodies were found.

What is known about the investigation?

The Mexico City Attorney General's Office reported that the forensic personnel conducted genetic profile comparisons of the missing individuals and found matches with two deceased persons, which allowed their identities to be confirmed.

Information gathered from testimonies and video records suggests that the last whereabouts of the artists was in the State of Mexico. In addition, B King's manager informed hat the musician's phone was last tracked in Iztapalapa, about 45 minutes from the Polanco gym.

Investigations are ongoing, with federal and local authorities collaborating to clarify what happened and determine responsibility.

What did B King's ex-wife, Marcela Reyes, say?

The case took a media turn when the name of Marcela Reyes, B King's ex-wife, was mentioned. The Colombian DJ denied any involvement in the disappearance and reported receiving threats against herself and her 7-year-old son.

In an official statement, she said: "I am at the disposal of the authorities to be investigated". In addition, her representatives stated: "As a result of these reckless claims, Marcela has received threats against herself and her 7-year-old son".

On social media, she also wrote: "I know where these threats are coming from and I know their true intention. But everything always comes to light. I am waiting—not in my time, but in God's time".

How did Marcela Reyes express her grief after their deaths?

After the death of the two musicians was confirmed, Marcela published a message in which she expressed: "Today, I can barely find the words. I am devastated! In a world full of noise, I am facing a pain so immense that there are no words for it".

She recalled the time shared with Bayron Sánchez: "I hold on to the seven years we spent together, full of unforgettable memories that I carry not only in my heart but also my son Valentino, who grew up alongside Bayron and holds in his memory moments only we know".

Finally, she asked for spiritual comfort for the family: "Today I can only pray to God to receive him in His arms, grant him eternal rest, and pour strength over his mother, his sister, and the entire family. May they feel peace amid the pain, and may the love Bayron left behind continue to be a light in this dark world".

What conclusion can be drawn from this case?

The discovery of B King and DJ Regio Clown in Mexico has generated commotion in Colombia and in the country where they were temporarily residing. The information available so far reflects a complex case, with multiple lines of investigation still open.

Statements from Marcela Reyes and the threats she reported have added a media dimension to the case, keeping public attention focused on the situation. Her words, along with those of the families, highlight the human impact behind these events.
