- ALittleLight 5y agoWhat tremendous courage reporters such as these must have to do their work.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoYeah, that was the same PR statement my quote was from. "Somewhere in Michoacan there's corruption" isn't very specific.

It just worries me because, how many sources, scared insiders have also been taken out? What is the full homicide rate for 2022 in Mexico? Not just the 'reporters?' If research breaks and it's not sound enough, what are the addition casualties?
