Biography

José Miculax Bux was born in 1925 in Patzicía, Guatemala.

From January 1946 to April 1946, Miculax Bux and his cousin Mariano Macú Miculax killed fifteen boys aged ten to sixteen. The victims were sodomized and strangled to death after having their hands and neck bound by a rope.

Miculax Bux was arrested on April 26, 1946, after a description was given by an old woman and Mariano was arrested on April 27 in Antigua after two prior false arrests were made. Miculax Bux confessed to the murders but Mariano denied them. Miculax Bux was sentenced to death on June 18, 1946, and Mariano was sentenced to 30 years in prison.

Miculax Bux was publicly executed by firing squad on July 18, 1946. His body, whose head had been kept at the Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala for medical study, was stolen in the 1990s.
