**Families Demand Justice in the Murder of Bar Owner Omar Guido**
Following the tragic homicide of Omar Guido, the well-known owner of the Sodoma bar in Tijuana’s Avenida Revolución, family members and friends are calling for clarity and justice. On October 22, a caravan was organized where participants urged authorities to thoroughly investigate the crime and reveal the motive behind it. Activist Edoardo Rodríguez emphasized the community’s commitment to respecting the legal process, stating, “We demand continuous investigation to uncover the true motives and ensure justice is served.”
Guido, who went missing on October 16 from the Linda Vista neighborhood, was found dead on October 18. His car, a gray JAC, was discovered on Niños Héroes street, containing a blue plastic tub with human remains in the trunk. Omar Guido’s contributions to Tijuana, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community, have been significant, raising concerns about the nature of his murder potentially being a hate crime. However, investigations continue, and the community remains hopeful for an unbiased outcome.
A heartfelt farewell took place at the San Gabriel Funeral Home on October 21, followed by the transport of Guido’s body to the Sodoma bar for a tribute event scheduled on October 27. Guido, a visionary who transformed from an employee with dreams to a successful business owner, was cherished not only for his entrepreneurial spirit but also for his altruism. He was known for aiding civil associations and activists, actively supporting LGBTQ+ initiatives.
According to Miguel Ángel Gaxiola Rodríguez, the prosecutor specializing in Crimes Against Life, a narcomessage found in Guido’s vehicle is a significant lead in the investigation. Of note, orders of arrest have been issued, and a principal suspect is on the run. Currently, the arrests of Gabriel N, caught with marijuana and under existing suspicion for kidnapping, and Diego N, found with cocaine, are significant to the ongoing proceedings. While the possibility of a hate crime is not completely ruled out, it is not a primary focus at this moment.
