I looked it up because the names weren’t familiar to me. Yeah, I see another murder in wonderful Central America. I bring up George Rose because he was actually tortured to death in the Dominican Republic - a crime which wasn’t even investigated much less prosecuted.

But, hey! No guns and all that beachfront property and cheap help!

People go to Latin America because it’s close by. But most Latin American countries are violent crime-ridden places policed by corrupt cops. Expats looking for a quiet life close to nature would be better off in the Far East. Places like Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia have low crime rates, low cost of living and fairly decent infrastructure. That’s why so many foreign investors put up plants over there, despite wage and land costs no higher than much of Latin America.

The Dominican Republic is in the Caribbean, NOT in Central America.
