             On this date, September 13, 1996, two men were executed in Guatemala by firing squad.

GUATEMALA: TWO MEN EXECUTED BY FIRING SQUAD

Roberto Girón Mendoza and Pedro Castillo were two Guatemalan men convicted of murder and executed, with their deaths by firing squad occurring on 13 September 1996. It was the first official firing squad execution in Guatemala since 1983. It was also the first execution to occur in Latin America, with the exception of Guyana and the Caribbean, in a span of over ten years.

The executions occurred outside of the Canada Penal Farm (Granja de Canadá), in Escuintla, Guatemala. The men had raped and murdered four-year-old Sonia Marisol Álvarez García on 19 April 1993. The execution was broadcast on live television.

The men survived the initial volleys of bullets, so after a doctor had confirmed they were alive a squad leader killed each man by firing a bullet into their heads. The resulting controversy caused the Guatemalan legislature to change the method of execution to lethal injection

SONIA MARISOL ALVAREZ GARCIA (RIP)
A little girl just 4 years old, victim of two animals looking men, delivered to a horrific destination.
At that age she was raped, her genitals were cut to facilitate rape, thrown on an anthill to provoke moves, after the double rape, she was hanged.
This is the reality of a painful case within our society, the culprits confessed themselves to everything and were sentenced to death by the laws of the country.
TODAY YOU ARE JUST AS DISPRECIABLE, THEY TRY TO DO BUSINESS OF THIS FACT, AND WITH THAT SEPULT ANY TRY TO IMPART JUSTICE TO RAPERS AND KILLERS THROUGH THE DEATH PENCE.
The three abominable names are:
Claudia Paz y Paz, former guerrilla and former MP prosecutor.
Frank La Rue, NGO operator and Sexual Harassment.
Jordan Rhodes, current PDH and blatant defender of criminals.



Their executions were filmed by the press and featured in the 1998 shockumentary film, Banned from Television

(13 Sep 1996) Natural Sound Two men were executed in Guatemala on Friday by a firing squad.
The two were sentenced to death for the kidnap, rape and murder of a four-year-old girl three years ago. The execution was the first to take place in Guatemala in 13 years.
Roberto Giron, 49, and Pedro Castillo Mendoza, 39, were sentenced to death for the murder of a four-year-old girl.
These men kidnapped, raped and then killed Sonia Marisol Alvarez on the 18 April 1993. Today (Friday) the execution took place at 12.00 G-M-T, in Canada prison, near Escuintla, 50 kms south of Guatemala City, after all appeals failed.
 The execution had been suspended twice before, following an appeal by the Inter- American Commission for Human Rights of the Organization of American States (O-A- S).
 The appeal was denied by Guatemalan Supreme Court. Guatemalan President, Alvaro Arzu, prevented another appeal by the American Human Rights Convention.
He also denied a late petition by Pope John Paul II. The last executions in the country happened in March 1983 during General Jose Efrain Rios Montt's government.
