Young alleged assassin Rodriguez is suspected of being the most feared hitwoman in her area – and is even accused of leading a network of hitmen too.

A large operation carried out by authorities saw her handcuffed, along with a man who goes by the name of Leopoldo.

In a video that has surfaced online, she can be seen walking with her hands securely tied behind her back while accompanied by two cops.

The Doll then stands to the right of Leopoldo before eerily glaring straight into the camera with no emotion behind her eyes.

She and Leopoldo are held by a police officer as they pose in front of the weapon which was found in the 23-year-old’s possession.

Ahead of her arrest, The Doll had become a priority target for authorities.

The Doll only completed high school before becoming involved with criminal activity at only 18 years old, local media reports.

Her cold-blooded approach to heinous crimes has even been said to scare off men, and her shooting aim is said to be steady and deadly.

Rodriguez is said to have understood that her feminine exterior could mislead cops and arouse little to no suspicion.

She would also dye her hair different colours to avoid being identified or caught.

In recent months, a series of murders have rocked Barrancabermeja – a municipality in Santander, Colombia.

This includes the murder of her ex-partner Deyvy Jesus Garcia Palomino which occurred in the rural area of Piedecuesta.

The Doll allegedly had met her ex to settle a situation involving money but organised with another woman the hiring of hitmen to carry out the crime.

During the hearings it was heard that the terrifying pair had allegedly received $4 million to locate and monitor the ex-boyfriend to put him in a position for perpetrators to murder him.

Lieutenant Colonel Mauricio Herrera, the commander of the Magdalena Medio Police, reported that The Doll was wanted for her involvement in several homicides.

He also stated that it is suspected that she is leading a specialised network, NeedToKnow reports.

During the arrest, authorities shockingly seized a revolver handgun as well as a deadly nine-millimetre caliber pistol.

They are now in the hands of cops who will work to analyse the weapons and determine if they were used in recent crimes.

Santander’s capital city, Bucaramanga, is one of the cities with the highest murder rates throughout the national territory.

The Metropolitan Police of Bucaramanga have revealed that in the first quarter of the year 30 homicides were recorded in the area.

This year’s data is much higher than those of the same period in 2022, when the authorities reported 26 crimes of this nature.

In a statement, Lieutenant Colonel Herrera said: “With the capture of alias ‘La Muñeca’ and alias ‘Leopoldo’, a part of tranquillity is generated in the region.

“These arrests mark an advance in the dismantling of criminal structures responsible for the recent homicides.”

Since the capture, The Doll and her alleged accomplices have now been made available to the Attorney General’s Office.

National Police have explained that hearings will be held to legalise their capture, impute charges and request for security measures.

The Prosecutor’s Office is expected to request preventive detention, considering the seriousness of the events and the risk that those arrested pose to society.
