***Trigger Warning*** This case has a brief mention of sexual assault, body dismemberment and ritualistic practices.
The Gateway International Bridge that connects Brownsville Texas to Matamoros, Tamaulipas Mexico gets over 40 million crossings per year. Matamoros Mexico is the third most dangerous city in Tamaulipas with an incredibly high crime rate and an even higher rate of kidnapping. Back in March of 1989, University of Texas at Austin student Mark Kilroy with three of his friends, Bradley Moore, Bill Huddleston and Brent Martin and some college girls they had met along the way would cross the Gateway International Bridge to enter Matamoros with the plan to party and have a great time. What none of them had expected was that this spring break adventure to Mexico on March 14, 1989, would be the last time they would see Mark Kilroy alive. Listen to hear the story of the abduction and murder of an American college student that was so disturbing that it prompted the local community to coin the term “narcosatanicos”.
