Jacek Piotr Jaworek (21 May 1969 – c. 19 July 2024) was a Polish construction worker who is suspected of killing his brother, sister in law and their 17-year-old son with a firearm on 10 July 2021 in the village of Borowce after an altercation between them had taken place.[1] In spite of the involvement of 200 police officers, European Arrest Warrant and Interpol red notice, authorities were unable to detain him[2] and as of March 2024 his whereabouts were unknown.[3] Europol had put Jaworek on the "EU Most Wanted" list.[4]

On 14 October 2023, a corpse was found about 20 kilometres (12 mi) from Borowce, where Jaworek committed his crimes. However, after DNA testing had been conducted, police refuted claims that it was Jaworek's body and concluded that it was a separate murder without any relation to his case.[5]

On 19 July 2024, Jaworek's body was found. A few days later, he was identified through DNA comparison. The cause of his death was determined to be suicide. He was 55.[6]
