Editing Rafael Trujillo (section)

=== Aftermath ===
The plotters failed to take control, as the later-executed General José René Román Fernandez ("Pupo Román") betrayed his co-conspirators by his inactivity, and contingency plans had not been made.<ref>{{harvp|Diederich|1978|pp=150ff}}</ref> On the other side, Johnny Abbes, Roberto Figueroa Carrión, and the Trujillo family put the [[Servicio de Inteligencia Militar|SIM]] to work to hunt the members of the plot and brought back [[Ramfis Trujillo]] from Paris to step into his father's shoes. The response by the SIM was swift and brutal. Hundreds of suspects were detained, many tortured. On 18 November the last executions took place when six of the conspirators were executed in the "Hacienda María Massacre".<ref>{{harvp|Diederich|1978|pp=235ff}}</ref> Imbert was the only one of the seven assassins who survived the manhunt.<ref name="imbert">{{cite news| url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-13560512| author=|title=I shot the cruellest dictator in the Americas| work=BBC News | date=27 May 2011 |access-date=16 August 2012}}</ref> A co-conspirator named Luis Amiama Tio also survived.{{Citation needed|date=June 2018}}

Trujillo's funeral was that of a statesman with the long procession ending in his hometown of San Cristóbal, where his body was first buried. Dominican President [[Joaquín Balaguer]] gave the eulogy. The efforts of the Trujillo family to keep control of the country ultimately failed. The military uprising on 19 November of the [[Rebellion of the Pilots]] and the threat of US intervention set the final stage and ended the Trujillo regime.<ref>{{harvp|Diederich|1978|pp=250f}}</ref> Ramfis tried to flee with his father's body aboard his boat ''[[USCGC Sea Cloud (WPG-284)|Angelita]]'', but was turned back. Balaguer allowed Ramfis to leave the country and to take his father's body to Paris. There, the remains were interred in the [[Père Lachaise Cemetery|Cimetière du Père Lachaise]] on 14 August 1964, and six years later moved to [[Spain]], to the [[Mingorrubio Cemetery]] in [[El Pardo]] on the north side of [[Madrid]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://almomento.net/news/133/ARTICLE/8118/2008-04-11.html |title=Solitaria, en cementerio poco importante, está la tumba de Trujillo |last=Castellanos |first=Eddy |date=11 April 2008 |publisher=Almomento.net |language=es |access-date=14 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120402033025/http://almomento.net/news/133/ARTICLE/8118/2008-04-11.html |archive-date=2 April 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
