Many worried Juárez’s bloody drug war spilling into U.S. – 72 slain this year in border city; worst is still to come, officials say

This city and Nuevo Laredo have historically shared a fierce rivalry over the benefits of their border location, especially when it comes to trade routes. These days, however, they’re competing for a title nobody wants: bloodiest border city.
Since the beginning of the year, Juárez has suffered an onslaught of killings – 72 as of Wednesday – most of them tied to organized crime. They are the result of a bloody fight for control of drug distribution routes to U.S. cities, including Dallas. And U.S. and Mexican law enforcement officials say the worst is yet to come.”*
