Colombia’s "False Positives" – The Military Scandal That Shook a Nation

In this episode of pplpod, we uncover the chilling reality of the "False Positives" scandal in Colombia, where over 6,402 civilians were murdered by the military between 2002 and 2008. Learn how innocent victims, often lured from towns like Soacha with false promises of work, were executed and presented as guerilla fighters to inflate body counts for promotions and benefits. We dive deep into the human rights crisis that unfolded under the presidency of Álvaro Uribe Vélez, the involvement of high-ranking officials like General Mario Montoya, and the revelations brought to light by the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP). Join us as we examine the role of former Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos, the brave whistleblowers who refused to kill, and the families’ ongoing fight for justice against these extrajudicial killings.
