Paramilitary chief and drug trafficker Hernan Giraldo raped more than 200 girls under 14 on the Caribbean coast of Colombia, creating a huge polygamous “family” to help him maintain territorial control, according to a study.
Giraldo, chief of paramilitary group Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia (AUC) would regularly groom, rape, and impregnate children, creating a network of girls who could keep him informed on his territory.
He has 70 confirmed children, though it is suspected there are more, according to the Interior Secretary of the Magdalena province, who has investigated “The Drill’s” predatory practices.
