The Narco-Satánicos were a notorious criminal cult based in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico, that became infamous in the late 1980s for combining drug trafficking with ritualistic killings. The group was led by Adolfo de Jesús Constanzo, a Cuban-American who called himself a "palo mayombe" priest—a religion with African-Cuban roots that he distorted into violent, occult practices.
Key Facts:
1. Leadership
  • Adolfo Constanzo was the leader and spiritual figurehead.
  • He gained followers among drug traffickers and law enforcement, who believed his rituals brought protection and power.
  • Sara Aldrete, a college student, became his second-in-command and was dubbed the "High Priestess."
2. Beliefs and Practices
  • The group practiced a twisted version of Palo Mayombe, involving animal and human sacrifices.
  • Constanzo believed blood rituals would protect their drug operations and make them invisible to police.
  • Victims were sometimes tortured and mutilated as part of these rituals.
3. Criminal Activities
  • The cult was heavily involved in drug trafficking, especially smuggling marijuana across the U.S.–Mexico border.
  • They operated on a ranch called "Rancho Santa Elena" near Matamoros, which became the site of gruesome discoveries.
4. The Murder of Mark Kilroy
  • Their activities came to light after the 1989 abduction and murder of Mark Kilroy, a University of Texas student on spring break.
  • Kilroy was kidnapped, tortured, and killed as a human sacrifice.
  • The high-profile case led U.S. and Mexican authorities to investigate the cult.
5. Collapse and Aftermath
  • Police raided Rancho Santa Elena and discovered numerous mutilated bodies buried on the property.
  • Constanzo died in a shootout with police in Mexico City in May 1989—reportedly after ordering one of his followers to kill him rather than be captured.
  • Several cult members, including Sara Aldrete, were captured and received lengthy prison sentences.
Cultural Impact
  • The case shocked both Mexico and the U.S., blending true crime with horror elements.
  • It inspired books, documentaries, and films due to its disturbing mix of drug crime and ritualistic occultism.

Note: I was very limited on what I was able to ask Sara, due to her being under contract for a documentary at the time.
