"We maintain that the fundamental factor that allows this phenomenon to continue is impunity. That is to say, whatever man or group of men doing this,
we think they are men with economic and political power who feel it is easy to rape and kill a woman and nothing is going to happen to them..."
-- Alma Gomez, lawyer representing victims’ families.
Co-founder, Justicia Para Nuestra Hijas.
"This unaccountability, along with corruption and drug trafficking,

-- Lucha Castro, lawyer representing victims’ families.
Co-founder, Justicia Para Nuestra Hijas.
