Today marks the first 60 years after the death of Carlos Delgado Chalbaud , president of the military junta that overthrew Rómulo Gallegos 1948-who in turn was the first president elected by direct vote in Venezuela, and which constitutes the first and only twentieth century national assassination.
significantly impacted his case to a country that was recovering from the political upheavals of the triennium 1945-48 and that after two years of dictatorship (1948-1950) was accustomed to the tranquility martial gave a regime controlled by the Armed Forces ("peace by fear.") Precisely in a country as secure and supervised, as is normal in any dictatorship, surprised that the President was killed in a heinous, when it was assumed that the president should be the most protected in the country. The unusually fast-highest death immediately aroused national authority (many) assumptions.
Chalbaud Delgado's crime, like almost all crimes related to power, are always wrapped in a mystery Environethics never really solve what happened. It is never possible to say exactly the murderous hand is behind the crime, even when it appears the executor of the fact that in the case of Delgado (name Rafael Simon Urbina ) was alive only hours after making your wrongdoing and died then in such strange circumstances, like Mr completed.
The Urbina's death, not without a strange silmilitud with that of Lee Harvey Oswald , who during the hours of assassination of JF Kennedy , the tomb was the reason for its action and the names of potential authors intelectueles the fact.
All I can provide "some light" into the sea of \u200b\u200bspeculation contained in these killings is to verify who or who really benefit from the assassinations or political crimes. In Venezuela, Delgado's death points to Marcos Pérez Jiménez (to the left into the picture, next to Delgado) who unrivaled weight on the road increases its power and eventually becomes president in 1952. Would you say this makes him responsible? We do not know his name nor we can say for sure the answer to the question of who was behind the crime, not necessarily for who benefits is the one who planned or carried out the killing. For Kennedy, the death benefit immediately to his vice president, Lyndon B. Texas Johnson, but the facts of his presidency shows a ruler too gray, not 
Aw s advantage of the "benefits" received for the great ambition of power that supposedly had that led him to kill (or conspire to kill ) to Kennedy, making a precarious presidency and low recall for Americans. The same can think of the Venezuelan case: despite the great public works constructed, the Perez Jimenez was a pretty grayish government, because without those buildings there is not much to remember him, and after the fall (1958) at ten years with great popular support had the opportunity to compete for return to the presidency through elections, and he did, preferred to withdraw, because the struggle for power caused him obvious apathy. There seems to be the behavior of a man "too ambitious." So any "lights" remain then only for at most scenarios, but nothing concrete and definitive.
Crimes in the political power of the Republican Venezuela
Al Delgado, precedes it chronologically the murder in 1923 of "Juancho" (John Chrysostom) Gómez, (pictured on the left ) highest authority in Caracas and elder brother of the dreaded dictator Juan Vicente Gómez , and who was killed by multiple stab wounds in the heart of Miraflores Palace, exercising the office of 1 st Vice-President and Governor of the Federal District. In a country with a government truly brutal, oy 
represiv tyrannical as that of Gómez and immersed in fear of power, this crime could not be designed or easily treated. Hardly an opponent could have come so far so easily, which immediately led to the suspicion that the crime of high government, was in the same area to main culprit. We never knew nor could prove anything, but always it was stated that this was a "dynastic crime" because apparently it Juancho family removed to facilitate another Gómez asecenso power: José Vicente or "Vicentico", (a right in the photo, with his wife) the youngest son of the dictator and just 2 nd Vice President True or false? We may never know. The only certainty was that the final Gómez eliminate the vice president of the Constitution and end the country expelling Vicentico and his wife in 1929.
Before this crime is that of Joaquín Crespo (the photo at left) former president of the Republic (first in 1884-86 and in 1892-98 Lugo) who m 
Uere in battle, in the Mata Carmelera (State Cojedes) in 1898 at the hands of a sniper apparently opposing forces. Crespo had gone out to fight rising José Manuel "El Mocho" Hernández, (the photo at right) who had taken up the "Revolution Queipo "against the government of Ignacio Andrade, Crespo's protege, saying that he had made an electoral fraud, which is very likely in a country without a traditional caudillo and democratic elections. The easy and unusual death was immediately Crespo assume or suspect a conspiracy within his own officers, but never could prove anything, much less know. Hours before the battle had 
had an altercation with officers at the council of war after the battle, it imposed its point of view over that of the other soldiers, and more than one of these came out very angry with the obstinacy of the chief ranger believed infallible and invincible. I miss your body moving, and not Acarigua San Carlos that was closer "to do the autopsy, late to take his corpse to Caracas and the mysterious disappearance of a few keys and a few trunks at his residence that contained money and above all many documents to make their reports, are reasons to fuel the conspiracy theory that many held for almost a century, since 1997, returned to do an autopsy to Crespo in his final supulcro in South General Cemeneterio Caracas .
further back still have the case of Ezequiel Zamora (left), who despite not having presidential dignity nor enjoy any high position if it was a great figure in a revolutionary movement, was for the soul of the Federation and if it succeeded, would secure a place of transcendence. Thus, in the siege of the city of San Carlos, in 1860, an ap arent 
stray bullet took him from this world, changing the course of the federal War and also of the entire nineteenth century Venezuelan history . As sure what would happen to Crespo's shot and made it unusual: it reached a senior military commander, immediately pointed to a conspiracy, a conspiracy within his companions, mostly because it benefited most from the disappearance Zamora, Antonio Guzmán Blanco would , (right in photo) important figure of the nineteenth century Venezuelan who did become president and rumors always point insistently enomre and outrageous view their lust for power, that he was the directly responsible-and material-Zamora's murder. As in previous cases, there are only guesses it impossible to know the truth.
Just 'forgotten'?
We think that these are all things of history, "things of the past," but there is no need to travel 60, 80 or 100 years to see how true is the constant of crimes related to power: it is precisely in this month November and produce another crime remains unsolved, as well as those described above: the prosecutor Danilo Anderson in 2004.
" be able to solve this crime? Even when science is in Coroner century and has already reached the highest levels of sophistication and excelenecia for this case the answer was exactly like what we have been outlining, speculation, assumptions, rumors and assumptions that once again demonstrates that history is always with and us.
Many thanks for reading!
