Facebook hit lists?

“Three [Colombian] teens who were on a 69-name hit list posted on Facebook have been killed in the past 10 days in a southwestern Colombian town, officials say. Police say they do not know who posted the list or why the names are on it. [...]

Authorities also are offering a reward of 5 million pesos for information on the killings.”

The Hit List:

Posted August 17, the hit list contained the names of 69-name targets in addition to the three who have been killed giving them a “3 day period to leave the town of Puerto Asis or be executed“, said Volmar Perez Ortiz, a federal official whose title is defender of the public.

The Police:

Until the executions occurred, the police simply thought it was a joke or a stupid prank!
