Twelve decapitated bodies were found on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula on Thursday.

The bodies were discovered in a suburb of Merida, the capital of Yucatan state. Forensic personnel are currently analysing the corpses whose heads are still missing.

According to The Associated Press, photos of the crime scene showed headless corpses stacked on top of one another in a field outside the city of Merida. Some of the bodies had tattoos and were jumbled amid blankets and tarps.

It appeared to be the largest single group of beheadings in recent years in Mexico. The tactic has become more frequent in gangland-style killings, and the largest previous instance of decapitations occurred in 2006, when gunmen tossed five human heads into a bar in central Mexico.

    • Horrible what people can do to each other.

      Legalizing drugs won't change stuff up much, not as much cash to be made, but there will always be something illegal for them to make cash and kill people over. Even small change legal drugs, grown illegally

      Oh for people who think animals live in peace, etc. don't be fooled.
      Most is graphic, so check discovery channel.

      Damn mammals.

    • This reminds me of that episode of Cold Case...where they find eight decapitated bodies in the woods..that particular episode was called "Mindhunters", but anyways this is so sad. I mean I know there has ruthless people since time began, but not it seems to be more frequent and people are just becoming more bold with their crimes

    • More drug traffic killing. This kind of stuff happens too
      often. Legalize the drugs for those that use and most of this crap would go away.

    • Thoses might be 12 headless body's but in the past two years there is been more killing than anyone can imagine. About two weeks ago in one night 25 persons got killed "mob related".

    • What? Largest single group of beheadings in recent years in Mexico? That alone is freaky...they have a history with this! Oh that's the biggest one we've had thus far.

      Wow.

      I would so puke. I would try not to, but I'm pretty sure I'd lose my breakfast or whatever....I watched Benny's Video (a 90's German Film) and he kills someone and when he drags the dead body and the head is bleeding and making a mess...I almost threw up...really bad.

      I can't imagine wanting to behead someone or seeing it...no.
