Univision journalist puzzles over deaths of 400 Mexican women
Tagged: border, crime, latina, UnivisionPosted on: June 24th, 2007“For almost a decade, the faces and families of the murdered women have haunted Teresa Rodriguez. The Emmy-winning Univision journalist went on to cover hundreds of other stories after her first trip to the Mexican border town of Juarez, scene of heinous crimes, but her thoughts — and her interest — always returned to those hundreds who were tortured, raped, their bodies abandoned in the desert.
I couldn’t get them out of my head, Rodriguez says. “The story, the women, became part of my life. There was one moment that I realized I had become obsessed with it and also obsessed with the reality that I did not have all the answers.”
