- Ecuador’s youngest mayor, Brigitte Garcia, has died. Garcia was elected mayor of San Vicente in 2023. One of her most recent projects was improving the water supply to the town. Ecuadorian police say two people were found shot to death inside a rented car on March 24. Law enforcement identified them as Garcia and Jairo Loor, the mayor’s communications director. Garcia was 27 years old.

Having your life taken away simply because you just wanted to do the right still blows my mind to this day. May she rest in peace.
no, it is because of politicians being sponsored by different narco groups, that want their guy in office. Lots of gringos in this comment section talk like they were born yesterday
happens everyday
yeah how does one even calculate god in such a unjust scenario
South America is bright
The reality of patriarchy and misogyny.
The reason is pretty obvious, she probably had morals and did not want to bend to the corruption.
Same in my country too... once there was an anti corrupt governor, he spent his days and nights searching and fixing corruptions, giving unpaid workers their due rights, building many infrastructures and cleaning the city, opening up jobs for the poor, giving free access to education and health for the poor, all while giving access to the public on his own wealth and city budget details, filmed and publicized his meetings in the name of transparency. He ended up in prison for 'religious' reason.
Edit: since a lot of people keep asking the name: He's Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, or more well known as Ahok, from Indonesia.
last thing i heard is she was allegedly having an affair with a coworker in consequence her last partner is the culprit not bc of corruption.
@@Canenobilei dont believe it. Why off the assistant to the mayor in the same car then?
@@jl-rt5itmaybe she was having an affair with her assistant? 🤷♂️

A gorgeous young lady loses her life for trying to do the right thing, you won't be forgotten, Garcia.🕊️🇺🇸
How do you know whats going on? Could have been a lovers quarrel, family or property dispute, etc no info yet on cause but you already know something we dont?
@@andrewooi82 you're right. Her position of power, political affiliation and region likely had nothing to do with it at all. It was probably just a lover's quarrel. News should print that.
@@iGNUiCouldwtf that guy you responded to was definitely projecting 🤦🏻♀️
@@ksantos0511and the guy you’re responding to was obviously being sarcastic.
@@andrewooi82 As usual, the whole comment section is graced with self-styled internet detectives/psychologists who "know what must've" happened. Such expertise all in one place. Amazing.
How devastating. Young prominent woman just trying to improve the livelihood of her fellow citizens gone too soon!
She was probably on drugs
Then protect her then. This is the failure of her people.
@@SheikhIbrahim-yl9kqon what evidence
I just gave ur comment a bad review bozo
Not by chance, Im sure. How high up it goes is the question? Maybe out of country involvement.
They saw her as threat because of her drive and passion for lasting change.
Well the mayor before her was also killed
Yup
Correct. They knew that with her determination plus her youthfulness that she would have a huge influence on a large group & would absolutely foster change. SOON. So sad. R.I.P. to her.
@@DJ_D3ADSTOCKyou don’t know who did it or why. Pretty sure a guy also passed with her.
How sad, most young people don't care for such thing. And it is quite selfless of her to carry on, knowing how dangerous this is.
As a Ecuadorian, let me tell u, things like this happens all day.
I love Ecuador but i hate to live on it. Its really sad.
I hope one day your beautiful country gets better😕

They never want anyone that’s gone make change 😢
So true 😢
Demons.

It's like america.
Maybe it was someone who didn't like a woman in charge or didn't like that she was honest and wanted to make a positive difference.
So sad, she just wanted better for her own country and community. As someone who dealt with losing a friend, my heart goes out to the family.

I'm sorry to hear that, I hope the best for you and your family.
You were born the same year as me, and to want to accomplish such great things at such age like helping your community is amazing. Rest in peace, sister.
I literally just said the same thing I’m 27 as well
“You” implies you’re talking to her. She’s dead homie.
@@Ch0senJuan Exactly Juan.
Rule of thumb in Latin American politics: If they kill you, you were doing right by your people and country. This is very sad. I was just watching an interview with her. I told my husband it won't end well for her. She's too good and really wants to help her people. I wish I wasn't right.
Every time I see another story of a cartel terrorizing Mexican villages, I can't help but agree, sadly.
and people have the audacity to shame the president of el salvador. smh

My question is,where was her security detail, if you know there's been attacks on political officials in the past ,then why not have guarded security, this is awful
In the back seat most likely.
They said the shots came from inside.. aka inside job
the security detail was inside the car man...didn't you hear them say the shots came from inside the car. that should close the case for you.
@@gabygreco4382
The guy in the passenger seat was her security? He off'd himself too?
what?
This always happens whenever someone tries to make change! Its a dark world out there 😢😢
😭❤️💔💔💔
It happens a lot, but at least Nayib Bukele is still alive and making change
Sadly yes

@@juicesoapcontraptions8928 Who here said anything antisemitic?
The driver sold out. Doors left unlocked. Terrible to die in that tiny car and with an enemy on your side

You can take away the life of those who do the right thing, but you can never take away the beautiful legacy they leave behind. I want to be bold like her. Rest in peace, Ms. Mayor Gracia.
don’t be or you will end up just like her
@Lego. You think if he doesn't he won't die? Smh
Me too❤❤Rest in Power Mayor Garcia
Lego ... your pieces do not fit.
Legacy ..... She is ded and 27 .
27 is no age to die. She had her whole life ahead of her, fighting for change and was discriminately murdered. I just don’t know why they do this in Latin America it’s horrific and may she rest in peace.
Edit: I did not mean indiscriminately, you’re very right! I know she was politically targeted so wrong choice of words.
Yeah I don’t think “indiscriminately” is the word mate, she was specifically targeted…
What part of political assassination don't you understand?
It was quite discriminant. She was targeted because of who she was.
27 is quite frequent age to die in third world, especially when you're doing "something" in Latin America with bandits in every place and job that exists.
@@shinyagami8843 Yeah he had a poor choice of words there. Clearly someone hired a professional to clean her up. Prob by the opposition

so how much is your mother, sister, grandmother, niece then?
Prayers and condolences continue to be with her family and friends.
This is so sad...you can tell she had a passion for helping her community. I do not understand why people do not like politicians that actually want to do the right thing! Giving people clean water is admirable.
It starts small like clean water. But if she gained more power in years to come, she could battle the corruption in that country. Same old song in most places. Same thing happened to a retired pro boxer in Nicaragua a few years back. He was running for office, but was found "Dead of a self inflicted gunshot wound." Argueo I think was his name. You can google it. Ain't no joke out there.
@@user-ky3pc2zd7e She was a Latin American socialist. She almost certainly was involved in the corruption.
How can you tell that? You only saw like 2 minutes and a bunch of stock footage of her. Did you know who she was before this news? What were her policies? Who was she involved with? What were her and the manager doing in that car alone? How did the shots originate from INSIDE the vehicle? This story has 80 holes in it and stinks to high hell.
Politicians hide behind kind acts all the time. Look at Joe Biden, he promised reparations to get black people to vote for him, and then he took it all back. He promised relief in Puerto Rico, and he never stepped foot on the island. He promised to relieve student debt and has reneged on that promise 5 times in 4 years. Its all perspective.
@@kevinkent6351 Im telling you. This story stinks to high hell. Unfortunately most people never get familiar with foreign politics.

You mean the US. This has what’s happened in Latin America. Surprised El Salvador got that far into making El Salvador the safest country it’s ever been. Maybe the US is to busy with Russia and Isreal and China
The political mafia always takes out the good people who want change for the community.
So she wasn't going after gang members, cartels or other politicians who were corrupt? She was just trying to help people? You just can't have nice things......
She was obviously an influential person to her community and to the world!! Why does it always happen to the the good!??
We live in a falling world, a dark world
unfortunately, this world is a mess. no amount of 'change' can literally change that. it's supposed to be chaotic apparently, which is sad.
Dang that’s horrible. RIP to both involved.
Rest in peace. Smh 🤦🏾♀️ there was no reason for this.
Corruption
Big wigs with money and power
money,power,sex. all some people care about!
How do you know she wasn't involved in a double cross?
Unfortunately corrupt individuals cannot be reasoned with.
Being born in some countries is really like starting a football match already 2-0 behind
Absolutely sickening 😢
so sad to think that people saying or expecting ‘ofc that happens if ur in politics’ will say it just like that. but the fact that this woman just doing the right thing unfortunately have to die because of ‘politics’. i hope she got the justice and the rights she’s fighting on for her country. never blame someone that is making a change in the dirty world of politics.
It's not right but it's reality. We live in a fallen world. I say that as a devout atheist.
You must have never been in Latin America to cry over things like that. You'd get used to it if you saw much worse things happening there.
@@viron6734 You dont have to be a "devout" atheist to see things the same as millions of Christians living in there. Your pointing it out as it was making a huge difference, certainly not for those who see reality everyday.
What is she doing?
Why she is targetted?
That’s true but at the end of the day that’s how they get down in those countries
How sad this is , May her Soul Rest In Peace 🙏😔
This is so sad. She was truly truly caring for her people.
Oh man. Such a young, beautiful and ambitious woman that was only doing her best for the country and people. God Bless
Imagine killing someone of your own kind who is trying to help you and your family. 🤦
It’s obvious that whoever got her killed was deeply rooted in corruption and benefiting from it. Which means that her good work for the people and aims to remove said corruption was actually a threat to them. No one would kill someone if their actions were actually beneficial to them
Countries like this can't develop.
America can't develop either with our devilish regime in office currently. It's sad when people try to make a positive change and can't even have enough time to fulfill yet evil prospers just like the Bible says.
No the video says the story is still developing.
I’m from Ecuador, and it was different when I went in 2011-2012. It sucks but after we let so many other people take refugee in our country, the crime rate spiked and now it’s advised to not even travel to Ecuador. It was so different before everyone started invading it
@@vickys.love00I spent some time there about 20 years ago, I had a great time and it was a beautiful place.
You mean like the United States of America, mass shooting capital of the world?
What a great loss to the community...prayers and love!
So sad. Prayers go out! 🙏
What you all don't understand is that alot of people get rich because of corruption and keeping their own people in a state of desperate poverty. It doesn't only happen in Africa. These corrupt people will go as far as to commit murder in order to sustain their criminal enterprise.
Don't use the continent of Africa in your example without also bringing up Western influence perpetuating that behavior and when it doesn't work, financing a coup.
@TheUAProdigy hi, sorry for the late reply, but here it is. Firstly, I meant no disrespect in using Africa as an example, but as you eluded, it happens a lot there, albeit by the wicked influence of the West.
Since Africa has become the primary topic, my issue with Africa is that the leaders sell out the people (and the land) to buy villas, cars, clothes, and tons of makeup and bleaching creams for their wives. The politians and the so-called pastors do it... and the people let them do it. Many Africans speak in condemnation of the west, but they really idolize the west. For example, they try to mimic the stupid mannerisms of rappers but just look foolish doing it. There's much more I can say, but let me know your views. I would like to know your thoughts on the matter.
@@raya472 how can you say this while acknowledging that anyone who does different gets killed by Western Powers?
Politics is dirty especially in places like these and in some Asian countries. Once you enter the world of politics and when you have a higher position, your life is in danger. You need to have strong influence and a lot of connections for you to have a peace of mind.
Politics is dirty everywhere, just a different kind of dirt.
In a lot of countries you don't need to fear for your life to be a politician 🙄 this is hyper corruption
@@slayorcs that's why he/she said 'specially'
Also here in the USA is dangerous to be in politics and there is alot of corruption too !

Why not say "a$sassinated" in the title??
It’s not clear yet if it’s politically motivated. That term would imply it is.
Because everything now is "alleged"

You will never survive in politics without a backing, which usually compose of shady people. It's true especially in third world countries. Even if you want to stand up against the wrong practices, you have to close your one eye and open the other (allow some form of corruption, allow some group to operate, allow some interests).
This is sadly true
This is the reality for any mayor who doesn't play ball with organized crime. Be they a man or woman, young or old.
I get the feeling no matter what good intentions you tend to do by helping others, some people will want to get rid off that and rather want corruption
