Eduardo Garcia Valseca has come out to the public about his seven and a half month tribulation that befell him as he spoke to a reporter for the Washington Post. More than a year has passed since the family of Eduardo Garcia Valseca suffered from the brutality of a Mexican kidnapping ring that kidnapped him and his wife in San Miguel de Allende.
Eduardo Garcia Valseca and his wife were coming home, after having dropped their three children off at school, when they were very suddenly overtaken by a white jeep and pulled over in the crudest way. A group of professionals jumped out from the jeep behind them and pulled Eduardo and his wife out after which they bashed Eduardo’s head making him bleed. Eduardo Garcia Valseca was put in hand cuffs and his wife was bound by duct tape by her arm and legs. He says he was kept in a filthy little cell for all this time where he has lost over seventy pounds of flesh due to the conditions he was made to live in.
The next day after the couple had been kidnapped, his wife was set free so she could go and arrange for the ransom that the group had demanded. Though the initial ransom was eight million dollars the deal was negotiated at a lower settlement and Eduardo has not disclosed the exact amount due to concerns it might arouse the temptation of others with such intentions. Eduardo is the son of a newspaper baron in Mexico who owns more than forty different publications.
