Luis Garavito Biography

Luis Garavito is one of the most popular and richest Colombian Serial Killer who was born on January 25, 1957 in Génova, Quindío Department, Colombia. Luis Alfredo Garavito Cubillos, also known as La Bestia (“The Beast”) and Tribilin (named for the Disney character “Goofy”), is a Colombian serial killer and rapist. He confessed to the 1999 rape, torture, and murder of 138 teenage boys and girls. Based on the location of skeletons on maps Garavito made in prison, his victims could have exceeded 300. Garavito continues to confess more murders. Local media have called him “the worst serial killer in the world.” Another Colombian, Pedro Alonso Lopez (known in Colombia as “the Monster of the Andes”), is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the worst serial killer of all time. However, Lopez is second in terms of the number of victims confirmed. All Garavito’s sentences were sentenced to 1,853 years and nine months in prison by the judicial body.

Guillermo Prieto La Rotta (popularly known as Pirry) was the TV host and journalist who interviewed Garavito. The show aired June 11, 2006. Pirry said that Garavito attempted to minimize his actions during the interview and stated his desire to pursue a political career to aid abused children. Pirry described Garavito’s prison conditions and said that he could apply for early release if he behaved well.

Garavito was charged with attempted rape and local killings. Garavito was interrogated about his attempted rape and local killings. Police believe Garavito planned to kill the boy if a bystander did not intervene. Detectives suspected Garavito to be La Bestia after a brief interrogation. However, Garavito insisted that he was innocent. Garavito was moved to tears by the detailed account of his murders.

In 1992, the number of Colombian boys aged 6-16 began to disappear from the streets. Many children in Colombia, who were victims of the civil war for decades, were homeless, poor, orphaned, and many more. These murders went unreported for years because most victims didn’t file a police report on their disappearance. Although clusters of bodies began to appear all over Colombia, authorities didn’t notice until 1997 when mass graves were discovered.

Because of the large number missing children, it was necessary to conduct a wide-ranging investigation as these murders were not restricted to one area. Two naked bodies of children, one of them a child, were discovered on a hill outside Genova, Colombia in February 1998. A second child’s naked body was discovered just meters away the next day. The victims had their hands tied and showed signs of sexual abuse. The necks of the victims were severed and bruises were found on their backs and genitals as well as their legs and buttocks. The bodies were found in the same spot as the murder weapon. The note found at the crime scene contained an address. This information helped Garavito find Garavito’s girlfriend.

While Garavito was out of his cell, detectives took DNA samples from his pillow and living area. The DNA found on the victims was a match to the DNA found in Garavito’s cell. Garavito confessed to murdering 140 children and was charged with killing 172 altogether throughout Colombia. He was found guilty on 138 of the 172 accounts; the others are ongoing. Garavito was sentenced to 1,853 years and 9 days in prison, the lengthiest sentence in Colombian history. However, Colombian law limits imprisonment to 40 years—and because Garavito helped police find the victims’ bodies, his sentence was further reduced to 22 years.
