Puerto Aventuras, Q.R. — Police are investigating the discovery of a body inside a Puerto Aventuras home. The body, believed to have been that of the occupant, was found by police early Wednesday.
Local reports indicate that a transgender woman was found dead inside the home after neighbors reported not having seen her for more than three days. Police were called by neighbors to check in on the woman who lived in the home.
When the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC) police arrived, they saw a person seated in a chair with a rope around their neck attached to a hammock. Neighbors told police the last time they saw her, which had been three days earlier, she was visited by someone.
That visit has been incorporated into the investigation into the transgender woman’s death. Police have not said if they are investigating a possible staged murder or a suicide.
