Scientist Found Dismembered in Brief Case in Colombia

[Lartinos]

Alessandro Coatti, 42, vanished on Friday, April 4, a day after arriving in ​​Santa Marta, about 2 hours east of Barranquilla on Colombia's northern coast, local outlets El Spectador and El Tiempo reported.

His decapitated body was found inside a suitcase on Sunday, April 6, the BBC reported, citing investigators.

Santa Marta Mayor Carlos Pinedo Cuello confirmed Coatti’s killing in a statement on X on Monday.

Prior to his disappearance, Coatti had reportedly asked staff at his hostel about doing research in the area, El Tiempo reported.

"He asked several times about routes to Minca and if there was any possibility of studying species in the area," a hostel employee said, according to the outlet. “The last time he was seen, he was leaving that place around dusk.”

If i had to guess, i would say it was some homo stuff that went sideways:

[Kwon]

Either that or he mistakenly wandered into cartel territory / witnessed a crime

[Brenda Steunbeer]

Probably suicide

[Lartinos]

Well, I didn’t think of the gay angle.

I think Colombia and I think of the women immediately.

Was he really going out to research science or was it all a cover to look for women?

[Van_Bilderass]

Wandered into the wrong territory and mistaken identity? But would a cartel bother to dismember and put in a suitcase? Maybe suggests a personal angle. Does look like a fruit.

Could be a classic case of homo hijinks gone sideways; however, based on his appearance and penchant for South American solo travel, I reckon the man's a predator.

I'm reminded of the American physician Daniel Carleton Gajdusek, whose work linking the spread of kuru to ritualistic cannibalism earned him a Nobel Prize. This wasn't the only thing he was researching, though. He also happened to be a massive, unrepentant pedo who spent every second of his spare time manually examining the penises of Papua New Guinea's boys—even going as far as adopting approximately 50 of them and bringing them back to the US for more abuse.

Colombians don't take kindly to these types, so it seems fair to suggest that this is the reason for our dungareed diddler's dismemberment.

This is an appropriate reason for him to end up like he did.

[IroNat]

Probably suicide

Agreed.

He definitely looks like pedo.

We had a horrific murder here in the UK a while ago.  Fella got left stuffed inside a suitcase to die.  Initial suspicion was around a chem-sex/kink thing gone wrong, but it turned out the guy was some kind of spook (in the UK parlance = spy) so maybe it was some sort of hit

More details of his deviancy and the death here

remember one being labelled a suicide even though the case was locked from the outside

Houdini did it.

[LurkerNoMore]

I read "Brief Case" in the thread title and assumed he was turned into ground meat first.

But no... it was a suit case.  So disappointed.

No straight man would wear something like that

Could be worse -

Suitcase related murder. Fella does entertaining videos imo.
