The searches continue and we will return. We will not stop,” the organization wrote on social media. This confirms once again: the earth speaks and does not lie. The way of operating today is coming to light.
The collective Guerreros Buscadores de Jalisco confirmed the discovery of “numerous” human remains at Rancho Izaguirre, located in the locality of Teuchitlán. After re-entering the property, the collective, along with other missing persons search organizations, reported the opening of a septic tank in which they located molars, plates, and other bone indicators at a depth of 80 centimeters.
“This time, the number of remains located is much greater than last year, which evidences the real magnitude of what happened in this place,” the search collective wrote on its social networks.
With the information collected so far, between 95 and 98 unique DNA samples were found in the human remains discovered at Rancho Izaguirre, which was operated by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).
But this is not the end, and the collectives assured that there are still areas to be intervened on the property, with points of interest between 2.5 and 3 meters deep, where there could be more human remains.
More than a year after the search collectives demanded access to Rancho Izaguirre and dozens of garments allegedly belonging to missing persons were found, two people have been identified through the analysis of human remains.
The organizations recognized the transparency of what is happening at Rancho Izaguirre, after some leaders of other collectives entered the site to listen to the information provided by the Attorney General's Office (FGR) and its Specialized Prosecutor's Office for Forced Disappearances.
Authorities report 47 people detained, accused of their connection to Rancho Izaguirre, as well as 70 young people allegedly recruited by organized crime during raids on related farms.
More than a year after the search collectives began entering Rancho Izaguirre, the position of Guerreros Buscadores is that what they have denounced is being proven: “Forced recruitment, the deaths, and everything they were forced to do inside that place.”
