A glamorous DJ whose musician ex-husband was found dead and violently tortured alongside his pal has been forced to deny she was involved in his death after a video surfaced where he said she would be to blame if something happened.
Singers Bayron Sanchez, known as B-King, and Jorge Luis Herrera Lemos, known as Regio Clown, were found dead on 17th September after travelling to Cocotitlan, Mexico. They had vanished on 16th September.
Authorities said both men, originally from Colombia, had been tortured and their remains cut up into pieces when they were found.
While police investigate the mysterious death, various controversies have begun spreading online, which intensified after the circulation of a video in which B-King claimed that if anything happened to him, his ex-wife would be responsible.
But his ex, Colombian DJ and businesswoman Marcela Reyes, said on social media that she has no connection to B-King’s death and complained she has received threats since the incident.

She also acknowledged that there had been heated arguments between them but stressed that they had later reconciled.
She admitted in a recent interview: "Because of my impulses and reactions, he and I had confrontations on social media.
"Unfortunately, people remembered that, but they didn’t realise - because neither he nor I made it public - that after that, we communicated on many occasions where we forgave each other."
Reyes addressed the video shared by her former husband in which he said he had been threatened and explained that the message in question was not meant as intimidation.

She said "If you read that message, there was no threat. If he had truly felt at risk, he would have reported me."
She also revealed that since B-King's murder, her family has been under pressure and that her son has not been able to attend school.
She said: "They’re threatening to take my child, to kill me, they're calling me a murderer."
Reyes stated that some of the intimidation has come from one of B-King’s phones.

She said: "That phone is in the hands of someone very close to me, and I think I know who it is," calling on his mother and sister to investigate who has it.
The DJ said she is willing to cooperate fully with authorities.
She said: "I'm here ready for them to investigate me, for them to take my phones and show me my conversations with Bayron."
She also called for respect for the artist's memory: "I'm ready to be investigated, to reveal my conversations, to be subpoenaed.
"What I'm asking is that the authorities act within the law, not with unfair trials or internet rumours."
