        He was a resistance fighter who never shot a single bullet against a person. He decided to expose Maduro’s regime and fought him by telling and showing the horrible truth facing Venezuelans. He showed the world what Maduro really is by using his best weapon, his cell!

        It was not a “shootout”. Perez was attacked and murdered while attempting to negotiate while surrounded by Ve military who were ordered to assassination him by Maduro. More New York Times Fake News.

        Óscar and his men are heroes, and heroes never die. It was not a shootout, it was an execution. They attack him with a tank, Rpg’s and more than 500 men, against 6 that surrender. The criminals killed all of them and also a pregnant women and a kid.
