Jorge Gil Plans to Sue ‘¿Quién lo mató?’ Creators

The survivor of Paco Stanley’s killing claims his image was appropriated without consent

Overview

  • Jorge Gil announced he is assembling legal counsel to file a lawsuit against the Amazon Prime Video and VIX series over unauthorized use of his likeness
  • He alleges the dramatized account distorts his eyewitness testimony and never sought his permission before depicting his role in the 1999 attack
  • Paco Stanley’s son, Paul Stanley, said the family still lacks certainty about what happened that day but grants Gil a “vote of confidence” as a firsthand witness
  • In his July memoir “Mi Verdad: 7 de junio de 1999,” Gil delivers a detailed, shot-by-shot narrative of the six-bullet assault that killed Stanley and wounded him
  • More than 25 years after the assassination outside El Charco de las Ranas, Mexico City authorities have never identified a definitive suspect
