Edsel Torres Gomez[1] a.k.a. "Negri" (born circa 1962) is an alleged Puerto Rican drug dealer who was on the FBI most wanted list for four years.

Criminal career

Torres Gomez was born in Caguas and resided at the public housing complex known as "Residencial Luis Gautier Benitez."[2][3]

He was on the FBI most wanted list for four years and was also the most wanted Puerto Rican fugitive. He allegedly was the mastermind of the Cayey Massacre, in which four men were kidnapped and murdered over stolen drugs valued at about $7 million dollars(in 1994 money). One of the men, Angel Castro-Alifonso, was the main intended kidnap victim, while three other men were innocent bystanders and were showing Castro-Alifonso realty property when he was shot and they were taken.[2][3]

Torres Gomez was a fugitive for four years, from 1994 to 1998, when he was captured in San Juan on April 8 of that year, by the U.S. Marshals fugitive task force. His trial was given massive coverage by Puerto Rican media, specially El Vocero newspaper.[2][3]

On April 21, 1998, the Grand Jury for the District of Puerto Rico charged Torres Gomez with 21 violations of the U.S.C. codes 841, 846 and 848.[4] The United States sought the death penalty against Torres Gomez; Torres Gomez and his attorneys fought against it. Edsel Torres Gomez is currently incarcerated at FCI Yazoo City Medium, in Yazoo City, Mississippi. He is scheduled for release in 2024. His federal Inmate register Number is: 16156-069
