I take advantage of Avenue View options in Google Maps on a regular basis to navigate new places. It’s a straightforward option to see your vacation spot earlier than you get there and helps you become familiar with the neighborhood you’re about to go to. It’s an unbelievable software to have, particularly contemplating that Google’s automobiles hold roaming the streets of the world to replace the Avenue View knowledge with new info.
Possibly the streets have modified, or new buildings have gone up in a area for the reason that final time Google’s automobiles have been photographing it for navigation functions. Or maybe an alleged assassin was ending up loading up the physique of an individual within the trunk of a automotive simply as a Google Maps Avenue View automotive drove by.
Okay, the final one is a somewhat wild declare and one thing you don’t see too typically. However police in Spain suppose the scene caught by the Google automotive cameras above exhibits one of many individuals concerned in a conspiracy to homicide somebody. The suspect is arranging what seems to be a somewhat giant bundle within the trunk of their automotive.
In accordance with El Pais, the scene above occurred in Tajueco, a village of solely 56 individuals within the Soria province of Spain.
Google Maps automobiles didn’t go to the area for 15 years till at some point final October. That’s when the cameras caught what seems to be a person arranging what appears to be “an extended white bundle with a suspiciously human form.”
As soon as I loaded the village of Tajueco in Google Maps, the scene wasn’t tough to seek out. Wanting on the photographs, plainly the Google Maps automobile turned left on the road the place the crimson automotive was parked, handed the person hunched over the trunk, and went on its means.
One has to wonder if the alleged killer realized what was occurring. The Google Maps automobiles are something however inconspicuous.
For those who’re conscious of how Google Maps and Avenue View work, you’d know you’ve been caught on digicam. That’s assuming you may take note of the rest round you whereas coping with an alleged physique that may be decomposing in these baggage. Yeah, the story will get means creepier.
Police have used different info to determine and arrest the 2 suspects. Along with the picture above, additionally they had cellphone messages and different proof. Additionally, there’s a special Avenue View picture of an individual carrying “a big white bundle in a wheelbarrow.” I couldn’t discover that picture whereas nearly visiting the city of Tajueco.
The 2 suspects have been previously married. They’re believed to have killed a Cuban nationwide in some unspecified time in the future in November 2023, a couple of 12 months earlier than their arrest. The police charged them after the Google Maps photographs went up.
The investigation began when a relative of the sufferer reported him lacking. Police advised them that the person had despatched the relative a WhatsApp message claiming they’d met a lady and would depart Soria. The person additionally stated he would depart his telephone behind.
The person is believed to have had a relationship with the now-arrested lady earlier than he was murdered. It’s unclear why the previous couple might need killed the Cuban.
The police are additionally investigating what occurred between November 2023, when the sufferer disappeared, and October 2024, when Google automobiles visited the village.
Earlier this month, the police discovered a dismembered “torso in a sophisticated state of decay” in a cemetery in a special a part of Soria. The situation of different physique elements has not been discovered. Apparently, the Cuban was very corpulent, prompting individuals to marvel what the alleged killers did together with his physique.
As I stated, this homicide case is terrifying. The one motive we’re listening to it proper now could be the involvement of Google Maps imagery, which stays on-line on the time of this writing. Try the total El Pais report at this hyperlink.
