The documentary “The Guardian of the Monarchs” premiered on Netflix on May 9th and has slowly been positioned as one of the most watched content.
The production revolves around Homero Gómez, a Mexican environmentalist who defends forests and the monarch butterfly, who fought tirelessly against illegal logging and organized crime groups that used the mountains of Michoacán to set up methamphetamine drug labs. Unfortunately, Gómez died in 2020 and so far his case has not been vindicated.
Who is Karina Alvarado and why is she important in ‘The Guardian of the Monarchs’?
In the Netflix documentary it is suggested that Karina Alvarado, current councilor of Ocampo, Michoacán, could be related to Homero’s death. He was last seen alive at a horse race in Ocampo, where he was accompanied by Karina and her husband, Deputy Octavio Ocampo.
Also, after the environmentalist’s body was found, they found his cell phone and tablet with the consultant.
These circumstances led public opinion to directly point to Karina Alvarado as an accomplice in the death of Homero Gómez. However, it is important to remember that the official version of the Michoacan Prosecutor’s Office states that Homer died of drowning, while his relatives believe that he could have been murdered.
There is even a video circulating on TikTok with over 4.5 million views claiming that netizens now hate Alvarado more than Karla Panini.
