Miguel Ángel López Velasco

Miguel Ángel López Velasco (1956 – 20 June 2011), also known by his pen name Milo Vera, was a veteran Mexican journalist for the Notiver newspaper in Veracruz, Mexico, where he wrote a column about crime, law, and security in his locality. He and his wife and son were killed in a drug war related attack for his journalism. Miseal López Solana, who was both the son and journalist colleague of Milo Vera at Notiver, also died in the same attack.

Three journalists from Notiver were killed within a month's time. Veracruz's state governor Javier Duarte de Ochoa promised to investigate Lopez's murder and the murder of 3 other journalists found dead in Veracruz in 2011. The Committee to Protect Journalists said journalists were leaving Veracruz or in hiding after the two Lópezes and Yolanda Ordaz de la Cruz, also of Notiver, were killed, which left the newspaper unable to report on crime and security issues.
