this article caught my attention with regards to human....woman rights. It states that there has been no arrests in 95% of murders of women in Guatemala, 70% of the cases have not even been investigated. It has the highest murder rate in Latin America and suggests that these measures against women are taken to ensure they keep their place (subordinate to men).
the statistics shocked me and the fact that most cases involve young women and sexual abuse is even worse. Something needs to be done to ensure justice for the victims and their families. The first step I would suggest is actual "investigation". If the consequences were stated and enforced then maybe the frequency and rate of murders in Guatemala would start to drop.
