Update on Texans executed in Veracruz state: "I told her not to go to Mexico"

Today CNN has an excellent video clip about the young family murdered in Veracruz state Dec. 22. The victims, a 39 year old mother and her daughters, 19 and 13, were on their way to a family Christmas gathering, but never made it. I posted about the case last week. http://mexicogulfreporter.blogspot.com/2011/12/three-americans-named-as-victims-in.html.

The executions were utterly pointless and brutal. The video is informative but not gory or unpleasant to watch. Since the attacks on the three passenger buses, the bodies of another two dozen or so execution victims have been found in the same area, near the Tamaulipas-Veracruz border. The Texas family likely entered Mexico at or near the Brownsville-Matamoros crossing. In the wake of the attack the U.S. consulate issued an emergency travel warning late last week, urging Americans to exercise extreme caution. http://mexicogulfreporter.blogspot.com/2011/12/death-toll-along-veracruz-tamaulipas.html.
