In a special three-part edition of True Crime Daily The Podcast, we’re taking a deep dive into the wild case of Jose Lantigua, a Florida man who betrayed his family and friends, fled to the jungles of South America to fake his own death, and was finally brought down back in the U.S. in an elaborate international fraud scheme.
In part one, host Ana Garcia explains how the plot began, and sits down with private investigator Richard Marquez to discuss the devious details of Lantigua’s plan.

The interviewer needs better questions to ask the fraud investigator (in the middle of this video). Something about that interview was odd.
Same old story with fake deaths….usually they’re in debt up to their eyeballs
a lot of people out there
BSE is mad cow
always the money
Richard: I've seen everything where somebody die from to much womanizing and drinking was hilarious and Ana's reaction and her face was even more.
As soon as a man starts talking about a "top secret mission" RUN! 🏃♀🏃♀🏃♀
i can’t believe he went off on that tangent that he did😂! too much wool in the eye!?
Having had to fight my way through life on my own, it's hard to feel sorry for these women who fall so deeply in love with a man's wallet. I wouldn't mind a taste of life myself- dining, traveling, a beautiful home, etc, but I wouldn't "fall in love" with someone just because they could provide that life. I am extremely poor, but proud that l am also very honest & have never used people to get what l want. Otherwise l wouldn't be poor, would l, lol??! 🇨🇦
I think the Wife was in on his scam. No way she’s this clueless… 👀
Ana, how did your eyes not roll out of your skull when listening to the wife's Broadway worthy theatrical performance?
Where is the rest of the story ??
Is anyone really that mad about ripping off an insurance company?
I don’t believe for a second that Daphne wasn’t in on his con. There’s no way she’d leave her own country to travel to cartel country if she’s that afraid of them. I wouldn’t be surprised if her daughter that travelled to the Bahamas with her was in on it too. I also find it hard to believe the police are actually buying what she’s selling. They probably just needed her as a cooperating witness. If she was really helping him out of fear for her family’s safety then when the insurance companies took her to court she could’ve turned to the police then. And even still consider how bold you have to be to go to court against 7 insurance companies for 8 million dollars knowing that you’re lying. She was obviously extremely comfortable with lying and that’s also why she could read her children his bogus death letter. I don’t think he chose her because she’s gullible I think he chose her because he saw that she is as equally morally compromised as he is. The only thing driving her was greed. I don’t buy her crocodile tears and I also think it’s weird she looks like she’s smiling while she’s supposedly upset.
What year was this when this happened lol this the funniest story I ever heard I know lifetime going to get him a movie
So crazy my parents lived on Fleming island for years and my grandfather and father are from Venezuela and my great grandfather was from Cuba and lived in Miami lol yikes I’ve never had so much in common with these crime stories lol
CirkelK ? That's the name of one of the biggest gas station company in sweden? Are they related?! Haha
Wealthy people generally donate to charities not out of altruism but for the huge tax breaks. notice how many donate to their own charities. edit sounds like the wife was in on it and everyone is just giving her a pass. She smiles alot during those crying jags I don't usually put a lot of credence in body language but that seems a bit too blatant to ignore entirely. it isn't evidence but it's interesting and the insurance guy seems to believe she was involved; the insurance company would have evidence to that end if it exists so makes me think he may be onto something
Sick. 🤢
Does anyone else notice how while Daphne's voice is breaking and she is on the verge of crying she is smiling? The top half of her face tells one story and the bottom half of her face tells a different story. So, yeah, I think she was on on the scam from the beginning.
Ana got a chandelier. Go on Ana❤️
Not so sure Daphne is all innocent….think she was on board but in the end he double crossed her.
