In the Izaguirre Ranch, in Teuchitlán, Jalisco, federal crimes were committed, such as the use of prohibited weapons for civilians, but no one investigated. Now, thanks to groups of searching mothers, who were ignored in the past, it has become a national and international scandal. Both the Federation, the municipality, and the state government will finally initiate investigations in this regard.
The terrifying images released by the Jalisco Prosecutor's Office reveal a modus operandi of drug trafficking groups at the Izaguirre ranch, confirming years of impunity in the area. This opens a file involving municipal, state, and federal authorities who should have been aware of the illegal activities occurring on the property.
It is necessary to clarify what happened in Teuchitlán and to establish an institutional policy that addresses the crisis of the thousands of disappearances in the country. The insensitivity towards the groups of mothers and relatives of victims who have undertaken searches on their own is reflected in this chilling finding.
The previous Federal Government dismantled the government institutions for the search of the disappeared and discredited officials and organizations dedicated to this cause. This discovery highlights the need for thorough investigation and the establishment of policies that comprehensively address the issue of disappearances in Mexico.
The new Secretary of Finance, Edgar Amador, assumes his position with the task of maintaining macroeconomic stability and promoting growth. Although he recognizes signs of economic "slowing down," attributed to external factors, he remains optimistic about the country’s economic prospects.
