Killing of Private Parks remains unconfirmed in Mexico
Reported execution by General Maas forces of Private Samuel Parks, missing since Wednesday, is treated as potentially unverified. Army officers doubt such an act would trigger a clash, suggesting it was the act of a subordinate and that General Maas may not know until Mexico City asks for an explanation. The matter is expected to be conveyed to Washington via the Brazilian ambassador in Mexico City.
