Valin Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 The Washington Examiner/AP Mar. 5 2022 NUEVO LAREDO, Mexico (AP) — For the investigators, the human foot (burned, but with some fabric attached) was the tipoff: Until recently, this squat, ruined house was a place where bodies were ripped apart and incinerated, where the remains of some of Mexico’s missing multitudes were obliterated. How many disappeared in this cartel “extermination site” on the outskirts of Nuevo Laredo, miles from the U.S. border? After six months of work, forensic technicians don’t dare offer an estimate. In a single room, the compacted, burnt human remains and debris were nearly 2 feet deep. Uncounted bone fragments were spread across 75,000 square feet of desert scrubland. Twisted wires, apparently used to tie the victims, lie scattered amid the scrub. Each day, technicians place what they find (bones, buttons, earrings, scraps of clothing) in paper bags labeled with their contents: “Zone E, Point 53, Quadrant I. Bone fragments exposed to fire.” They are sent off to the forensic lab in the state capital Ciudad Victoria, where boxes of paper bags wait their turn along with others. They will wait a long time; there are not enough resources and too many fragments, too many missing, too many dead.
