El Patron, also known as Patron.mp4 or 1 Man 5 Bullets is a shock video depicting a man identified as Leonardo Alexander Caripe Brito being shot five times in the face until his eyeball pops out. It was recorded on February 21, 2022, shortly after Leonardo was murdered. The footage was sent to other motorcycle taxi drivers as a warning to pay their quotas.
Background
Leonardo Alexander Caripe Brito
Leonardo Alexander Caripe Brito was born on November 18, 1987, in Caracas, Venezuela. He moved to Peru in 2021 and started working as a motorcycle taxi driver for the urban development organization 5 de Agosto. He rented a motorcycle taxi with license plate number 7568-ZA.[1] He graduated from U.E.P. Simon Rodriguez and was reported to have had three children.[2][3] In his free time, he enjoyed reading Harry Potter, playing with dominoes, and following sports teams like FC Barcelona, Manchester United, and the New York Yankees.[2]
Frank Anthony López Quiroz
Frank Anthony López Quiroz, who goes by the aliases "Chatín" and "Mata por gusto," was an extortionist who had been arrested in 2019 for killing two people. He was also connected to eight other murders.
February 21, 2022
At approximately 6 pm, Leonardo parked his motorcycle taxi on Calle las Peras in Los Olivos, Peru, to talk with his friends. According to some witnesses, an argument broke out between Leonardo and the extortionist before the murder occurred.[4]
Content
In the video, Leonardo is shown sitting on a sidewalk with a distressed expression, saying "tu dile el patrón" (you tell the boss) to the extortionist who is recording the video. The extortionist then pulls out a Glock and says "el patron" (the boss), then shoots Leonardo in the face five times, causing blood to spray out of his nose and mouth. In the third shot, Leonardo's left eyeball pops out of its socket. As he collapses on the sidewalk, the camera pans to his face, which is bleeding profusely and has his left eyeball visibly displaced.
Aftermath
After the murder, the video was circulated among motorcycle taxi drivers as a warning to pay their quotas or face similar consequences. In addition, several individuals recorded videos of Leonardo's body lying in a pool of blood on the sidewalk from different angles.
As part of the investigation, several motorcycle taxi drivers identified both the extortionist and the person who recorded the video as Frank Anthony López Quiroz, who had a reputation for extorting other motorcycle taxi drivers at the time.[5] Police officers covered Leonardo's corpse with a plastic bag and collected bullet casings.[4]
On March 17, 2022, Frank Anthony López Quiroz was captured, almost a month after the murder. He was sentenced to 17 years and 4 months in prison on February 4, 2023.[6]
Spread
A few months after the murder, the video began to surface on several gore websites, the most well-known being Portal Uno Midias. The video quickly spread throughout the Arabic-speaking community, who titled it "Unomidias" or "murder of a Spanish man".
Gmail Incident
On November 2022, a Gmail account using Leonardo's full name as its name sent the video via email to several people. If someone replied to the email, they would receive a screenshot from the video automatically from a bot. One of the recipients tracked down the sender's contact information and purportedly got their full name, email address, and IP address.[7]
