‘The Doll’ And Accomplices Arrested In Colombian Murder Spree

Colombian authorities have arrested 23-year-old Karen Julieth Ojeda Rodriguez, known as “The Doll,” for her suspected involvement in multiple murders. The arrest follows months of violent gang-related activity in Barrancabermeja, attributed to her leadership of a group of hitmen linked to the Los de la M gang.

Police identified Rodriguez as a suspect in the July 23 killing of her ex-boyfriend, Deyvy Jesus. According to reports, Rodriguez allegedly invited him to a meeting under the guise of resolving a financial dispute. When he arrived, he was fatally shot by two assailants on a motorcycle, an attack police believe Rodriguez orchestrated.

Rodriguez was taken into custody along with two alleged accomplices, Paula Valentina Joya Rueda, nicknamed “Gorda Sicaria,” and a man identified as “Leopoldo.” Police confiscated two firearms during the operation, which are being analyzed for links to recent crimes.

Magdalena Medio police credited the arrests with restoring a sense of calm to the region. “With the capture of alias La Muneca and alias Leopoldo, a period of calm has been created in the region. These arrests mark progress in the dismantling of criminal structures responsible for the recent homicides,” said Lt. Col. Mauricio Herrara.

Rodriguez’s public persona as “The Doll” has drawn attention to her alleged role in the violent crimes. Videos of her being escorted through the streets after her arrest have circulated widely, adding to her infamy.

As investigations continue, Colombian authorities are working to address the region’s high homicide rate. In Bucaramanga, where killings occur approximately every three days, the arrests of Rodriguez and her associates mark a significant step in the fight against organized crime.
