I suppose you mean Darryl Fornatora, the missing surfer.
No particular reason to expect him to be a victim of this gang, since (as far as anybody knows) they very specifically targeted local bus drivers, to steal their money and especially their vehicles.
The fact that Matt Rigby, who went with Fornatora on the trip, canceled an interview with investigators and hired an attorney suggests the investigation is moving in a different direction.
HERE is the official report from the police (Spanish).

When you beat someone long enough. and HARD enough, the willingly "COOPERATE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
THIS CASE has nothing to do with "TOURISTAS".
that's what i read too. the victims went missing on different days too so one may assume they were thrown in on separate occasions.
i hope the gang members rot in jail and never see freedom again.
There are another 16 drivers still missing around the country. Apparently they kill the drivers and smuggle the cars into Haiti.

I think it is best to wait for the court case to continue in San Pedro de Macoris on Tuesday before speculating on any connection between the killings in the east and people missing elsewhere . I am hoping the link man in Haiti can be caught soon and be forced to give information.
Another body has been found in the Area, but this case is completely unrelated to the 4 bus drivers. I guess this is the new crime wave in DR.
