I seem to remember Wilson Palacios brother being kidnapped and murdered in Honduras a few years ago. This part of the world is dangerous and lawless and due to most living in poverty are targeting wealthy citizens with evil and aborant kidnapping.
this also happened to a baseball player from Venezuela. He was kidnapped and held for 3 days before being rescued.
Also Canelo Alvarez’ brother was kidnapped in Mexico as well. Canelo had to pay up to free the brother.
that’s another aspect of pressure some players feel if they are wealthy from the sport and their families are from rough backgrounds. Not easy to deal with.
