Thus far, aside from the little kid that Simone already posted, I have only been able to piece together antemortem imagery and a cadaver match and background to one victim. I am also trying to figure out which body belonged to the bar owner who was allegedly the main target of the assault.

The postmortem pics here are replicated from the OP, but since I am establishing matches between bodies and identities, I'll just repost them here with the AMs. I'll try to get more as I can, but for now...

this young woman, featured postmortem in several of the photos, has been identified as a 23 year old university student pursuing a degree as a Nutritionist. She was home from college for the Easter holiday, but it was not made clear why she was at the party or who she was related to.

well she peed her pants thats for sure

"Good" Friday comes from an archaic definition of the word, which means "holy." Also, in Spanish the day is Viernes Santo (Holy Friday). Neither means our modern
"good," ironic or otherwise.

J.C.G.R. (aka 'El Becky') was a trans man who owned the place. He was the target for the gunmen as he hadn't paid the rent at a gay bar he owned. There's also rumours that drugs were being dealt at the bar. Back in 2014, his sister, 34 year old I.A.G. was kidnapped after leaving a party + murdered with signs of sexual violence.


Apparently 2 out of the 6 gunmen have been identified.


A witness of the massacre stated:

"Those who were crouched were told to turn to see, and the dead were shot again, they told you to look at them, you did it and they shouted at you to turn around, it was horrible, horrible, I had never seen so much hate in my life, so much evil in the hearts of men, may God forgive them, but may the justice of man do his job."

Taken from a FB post:

Thousands of people fired the victims of the holy Friday massacre; in the midst of pain, sadness and courage, they buried their loved ones for those who claim justice and ask for peace for the municipality.

It was impossible not to cry. In a white coffin like his spirit, little 'S' undertook the eternal dream in the arms of his father, 'C', a young sportsman highly appreciated in the community community, and that this afternoon, he gave him the last goodbye in the small leagues field.

The most busy funeral and also the most sense, because in addition to the baby, he said goodbye to the aunt of the ball player, I.B.A., fervent promoter of baseball.

On Sunday of resurrection, the church Christ King was insufficient to receive the family and friends of the dead in the palapa "La Filly" of the working colony; there they were taken each of them for the homily of body present.

In the morning the mass was held in honor of the union official J.R.L.V.; at 3 PM, they received the bodies of C.H., little 'S' and Mrs. I.B., later, of the young P.C.R., student of the university of the valley of Mexico campus puebla.

The Directive of the children's and youth Baseball Association of minatitlán, chaired by Dr. Norberto Chain Reyna, condemned the facts in which an armed command ended with the lives of 13 people, including the baby of 'C'.

The Bleachers of the field were filled, in each of the attendees reflected the face of pain, of impotence to what inevitable; the boys of their team, uniformed with the Marlins Logo, carried out the protocol prior to each match, Not without before, place the camisoles that your coach carried in every game.

The cry of the family, LED by his sister, could be heard in the silence that at times was kept; the porras were thundering, as well as the minutes of applause offered to the graduate of that league, where he came every weekend to Encourage your boys.

"The friend who left", song of the untouchable group, served as a background for 'C' to give his last return to the field, loaded his coffin by friends.

It is known that the unfortunate R.P.V., keyboardist who regaled the birthday party; as well as the guests A.M., F.C.G., L.S., H.R., A.M.S. and J.C.G., also received christian tomb this day, now Yes, armored with state police patrols, civil and military force.

It ended the tragic holy week in minatitlán, between the celebration of the Sunday of resurrection and goodbye to the victims of crime, of an aberrant act that brought a people who demand justice, who cries for peace and asks their authorities to attend The crisis of insecurity, for so far is unknown the mobile of crimes and the government of the state seems to give a blind stick to stop those responsible for the massacre.

Thanks. I've been trying. It's a tough haul, though. Patricia was easy because several reporting sites linked her antemortem image with her postmortem image. I also managed to match her shoes with an antemortem image from a FB photo. Hers are also the clearest photos of any decedents except for the baby.

So many of the others are up in the air. I'm still working on it and appreciate the tip. But I'm on the road this week so I may have to stick with the low-hanging fruit for now.
