Federal forces sully Mexico’s war on drugs

Ciudad Juarez is a city wrecked by Mexico’s drug violence. Although official figures vary, the city this month likely surpassed 10,000 homicides in the past four years. That’s more than Afghanistan’s civilian casualties in the same period and more than double the number of U.S. troops killed in the entire Iraq war.

A student of mine a few semesters ago missed her midterm because she was abducted in Ciudad Juárez and kept in a meat locker for 36 hours - until they realized they picked up the wrong girl and let her go.
