Horrible


Over the weekend in Mexico, a Mexican legislative candidate, his wife and two sons age 10 and 13, were found murdered in their home. The bodies of Jose Francisco Fuentes Esperon, wife and 2 sons found inside their home. It is suspected that the family was murdered by drug traffickers, however, there are currently no suspects in custody. The murder occurred in Tabasco, Mexico.

This is honestly horrible. I am not sure what is going on in Mexico. . . maybe murders by the drug cartel have been common for years and for whatever reason, the world news is now deciding to cover the stories. . . but still, I find this very heart wrenching. Think about trying to serve your country and make it a better place only to have your life snatch away from you. . . let alone your entire family. I'm not sure what the Mexican government plans to do about the recent publicized violent activities, but hopefully those who terrorize other will be bought to justice swiftly.
