Eight years after 43 students disappeared in Mexico, families are still searching for answers. “We are still finding out many things. But we still don’t know where our children are,” a grieving father told NBCLatino.
Family members and friends march seeking justice for the missing 43 Ayotzinapa students in Mexico City, on Aug. 26.When Antonio Tizapa’s 20-year-old son, Jorge Antonio Tizapa Legideño, disappeared with 42 other classmates from a rural teacher’s college in southwest Mexico on Sept. 26, 2014, he thought they would come home soon.
“Eight years later, we are still finding out many things. But we still don’t know where our children are,” he said. “Some things have not been brought to light. And other evidence has disappeared. But we have not stopped fighting. We continue marching. We continue organizing rallies. We have lawyers pushing for justice.”
The Ayotzinapa parents have fought with the Mexican government to uncover the involvement of the military in the case. And Tizapa says that the government needs to push a lot further to deliver justice. “This is not just a militarization of public security, it’s a militarism of parts of Mexican civilian life,” she said.
Like Tizapa, Meyer underlines the ultimate question: Will the Mexican justice system have enough solid evidence to lead to a conviction, or will it set up student families for yet another disappointment?
