Biography

Esneda Ruiz Cataño was born in Dabeiba, in the Antioquia Department.[5] According to the investigating Colombian authorities, the murders occurred between 2001 and 2010, all against her husbands, with Cataño acquiring their life insurance after.[5] The first victim was identified as Juan Pablo Aristizábal Gutiérrez, who was killed on June 16, 2001 in a village called El Tablazo, in the municipality of Rionegro, dating on Father's Day.[6] Cataño was investigated for the murder, but was released, so she returned to Medellín to get the insurance. The second person killed was José Valencia Guzmán, which occurred in 2006 in the commune of Aranjuez, on Valentine's Day.[6] He was killed near a pool, after Cataño stabbed him in the neck. The authorities again conducted an investigation, but nobody was arrested.[5] The third and last victim was Miguel Ángel Beleño Mejía, who died in 2010 of a stab in the neck, acquiring a life insurance of 80 million pesos.[5]
