Random Disturbing Stories From Real-Life Hitmen (17 items)

• (#6) Never Make It Personal

  Redditor /u/briteyednbushytailed asked:

  Have you only ever killed people for the cartel? Or have there been some personal kills too?

  Redditor /u/Elchinola replied:

  I never killed anyone for my benefit, it was always work. You could fight with me and I would only do what I needed to defend myself...

  Now if the bastard had a gun, I would run and come for him later.
• (#14) Even Hitmen Have Regrets

  Redditor /u/Baydude98 asked:

  Do you have any regrets over what you did? If you could go back, would you stop yourself from doing anything?

  Redditor /u/Elchinola replied:

  Yes. I wanted a normal life, to go to school, learn a trade, and support my family. That was not the case, and because of that it led me down a path. I'm thinking I learned a trade, just not a good one.
• (#13) Only God Can Judge

  Redditor /u/moodorks asked:

  Are you going to Hell?

  Redditor /u/Elchinola replied:

  I believe it was to be the plan of either God or the Devil. To have good you need bad. If I was to become what I am, GOD chose this for me. He can forgive all sinners and I would like to confess to a priest beforehand.

  It will be up to him to decide where I go. I have no say in it. Of course I would like to say I'm going to Heaven, but I have done things others consider bad.
• (#4) Hits Require Extensive Planning

  Redditor /u/Vredesbyrd43 asked:

  How much work did you put into your hits? Was there a lot of planning and being careful about not getting caught, or was it more just like shoot and run?

  Redditor /u/Elchinola replied:

  No, we put a lot of work into it. Planning could take weeks of following them, learning them, and then hitting them. Sometimes we were told to pick them up and not kill them (kidnapping). This was for higher up people.

  When I was younger, it was a simple run up, rob them, shoot, and get away. I moved into more complex movements. But yes, sometimes the easiest thing to do was stage a robbery of the person and do it there.
• (#12) Any Number Of Activities Can Get You Killed

  Redditor /u/FourtE2 asked:

  What did these people do?

  Redditor /u/Elchinola replied:

  Everything from not paying debts, sleeping with someone's wife, killing other members, being from rival groups, speaking to the police. Everything.
• (#15) Not All Weapons Are Created Equal

  Redditor /u/Romandi asked:

  Did you have any favorite weapon? Did you use one weapon for some times or a new one for every new hit? Did you prefer some kind of weapon against others? Did you train your shooting (or other) skills?

  Redditor /u/Elchinola replied:

  Yes, I like German guns, they don't misfire. I like H&K and Bushmaster. We never traveled with our weapons. We would go to the location and use what they had. It would be too risky driving around with weapons all the time. We would practice shooting several weapons and we got training from ex-marines, Russians, and FARC groups.
