[Quadruple Murder in Mexico Suspected to Be Failed Bitcoin Cold Wallet Robbery]
According to Cointelegraph, two suspects in Mexico will appear in court this week for the murder of four people. Prosecutors allege their motive was to steal a Bitcoin cold wallet containing millions of dollars. The victims include rock band keyboardist Jonathan Meléndez, his pregnant wife, their daughter, and an employee. The family’s golden retriever was also shot and killed. One of the suspects reportedly had business dealings with the murdered keyboardist, which is believed to have granted him access to the scene. The incident occurred in Atizapán de Zaragoza, State of Mexico. The two suspects were arrested on September 2. If convicted of murder, they could face up to 70 years in prison for each count.
