2. "Army Mass Grave in La Macarena"--up to 2,000 bodies found, grave dates 2005 thru 2009

The thing is that they don't include the official slaughter in crime statistics.

"Residents say that after it entered the strongly guerrilla-controlled zone in the mid-2000s, Colombia�s Army began dumping unidentified bodies in a mass grave near a local cemetery. The grave may contain as many as 2,000 bodies."
