To Disappear in Sinaloa

On average, every 8 hours someone is disappeared in Sinaloa. In a state permeated by social and bureaucratic violence, the crime has created a new form of survival: attempting to avoid disappearing.

This does not form part of the agendas of the government agencies tasked with preventing it, who lack a clear explanation of the social dynamics that lead to the disappearance of both women and men.

Rather, it is the families of the disappeared who have undertaken the searches, risking threats, beatings, murder, and disappearance to do the work that, by all logic, should be done by the state authorities.

The cemeteries are filled with the nameless

The day the gravediggers die, they will take with them the records of hundreds or thousands of people who were buried in common graves as “unidentified".

The police who did not want to be police

Not all police are bad, but neither are all officers good. There are even those who prefer to eschew their role as protectors of the law and choose to become criminals.
