Human Rights in Mexico — “Last week’s killing of Digna Ochoa,

one of Mexico’s foremost human rights

lawyers, had all the markings of a political

execution carried out by powerful interest

groups that are confident they can act with impunity, as they always

have. Ms. Ochoa was shot at close range in her downtown Mexico City

office. A note left behind warned other human rights lawyers that they

would be next.” NY Times editorial[“FMHreader”, “FMHreader”]
