Four People Face Charges in Tulum Homicides as State Prosecutor’s Office Secures Multiple Indictments

Tulum, Mexico — Four individuals have been formally charged in connection with separate homicides in Tulum after judges found sufficient evidence presented by the State Prosecutor’s Office.

The judicial authority ordered criminal proceedings against Raúl “N,” known as “Negro”; Luis Mario “N,” alias “Cali”; Emilio Mijail “N,” called “Veneno” or “Homero”; and Sheila Yuritza “N.” All are linked to high-impact crimes in the municipality, with victims’ identities remaining confidential.

January Drug-Related Killing

In the first case, the three men face charges of aggravated homicide for events on January 8 of this year. According to investigations, they met with others to plan the killing of a drug dealer from a rival criminal group identified as a source of violence.

In the early hours of January 9, the victim was shot dead with a firearm.

November Bar Incident

In a separate Tulum incident, Sheila Yuritza “N” was charged with aggravated homicide for the killing of an unidentified man on November 21, 2025. Prosecutors say she was at a bar when a security guard alerted her to a suspicious man’s presence. Later, along with alleged accomplices, the victim was killed.

The State Prosecutor’s Office noted that for this same homicide, Emmanuel “N,” alias “Gordo,” and Mauricio de Jesús “N,” alias “Zombi,” had already been charged on December 5, 2025, as part of the same investigation.

Additional Cases Across Quintana Roo

Authorities also secured indictments in other municipalities across the state.

In Benito Juárez, Luis Enrique “N,” alias “Barbie,” was charged with aggravated homicide for events on November 10, 2025, in the Villas Otoch subdivision. A man was attacked and later found dead in the irregular San Vicente neighborhood, in what appears to be a drug-related settling of accounts.

In Puerto Morelos, Benancio “N” and Miguel Ángel “N” face charges of attempted homicide after a confrontation with investigative agents at a beach access point.
