A court in the Dominican Republic convicted ten men connected to the shooting of David Ortiz:

American private investigators hired by Ortiz said that the Hall of Fame slugger affectionately known as Big Papi was targeted by a Dominican drug trafficker who was jealous of him.

The findings by former Boston police commissioner Edward Davis contradicted a previous theory by law enforcement in the Dominican Republic that the hitman was actually hired to shoot Ortiz’s cousin Sixto David Fernandez, who was sitting at the same table.

Jealousy over what? That Ortiz was better looking? That Ortiz was more loved? Seems a pretty weak motive to me.
