Violence Devours Youth in Juarez and Border Cities
A grim El Heraldo report highlights Juarez and border towns as epicenters of youth homicide in 2008. It cites 1,094 killed youths nationwide in Mexico, with Juarez bearing the heaviest toll, and notes scarce educational and cultural outlets fueling vulnerability to crime.
