Yes we discussed this awhile back. Nancy Marshall's husband Kim had accepted a job transfer to Mexico and Nancy went down there to scout out potential living arrangements for the family. It was at this time that her family believes she was raped and murdered however the Mexican authorities ruled her death a suicide and refused to allow the United States jurisdiction to investigate.

The fact that her death was ruled a suicide is what I was referring to.
You're right. The US should not have been given jurisdiction. It's fine and dandy the way it was wrapped up apparently. I know that's not what you're saying, but it's what I'm saying.

I have to agree with Zero on this.
It was fairly obvious her death not a suicide, but unfortunately since it was ruled that way and the US was not allowed to investigate her killers have gotten away scott free

Of course the authorities blew it and they should be pressured to do their job but that a far cry from allowing US to take jurisdiction in Mexico. I'm pretty sure that there has been numerous cases of people from other countries getting murdered in the US as well as Mexican nationals and I'm sure the US would never allow another country to take jurisiction of a case on their soil. Same case here. Mexico is a sovereign country and no other justice department should be awarded jurisdiction there. |

They more than just blew it. They were either really stupid and really believed she committed suicide, or they didn't give a sh-t and said "suicide" because, well, they didn't give a ----. Pathetic. Yes, Mexico is a sovereign nation (so is Afghanistan), and they have shoddy investigative practices. For whatever reason. Most of the time, when foreigners are murdered here, the US just doesn't slap a "suicide" label on it the way Mexico does so often. Take those two Swedish hitchhikers profiled on UM for example. While the US may not allow another country jurisdiction to investigate, the authorities typically put forth an effort to find out what happened and bring the suspects to justice. They don't just make it a point to add the name of an obviously murdered human being to the countries suicide stats.

I'd say as soon as she became old enough to be aware of what was going on, they (or he) killed her. Nancy Marshall's "suicide" is just another example of how corrupt and unorganized Mexico's government is. Remember the case of the young man who went to Mexico, had a fight with his girlfriend, then was found dead in his jail cell, hanging from his BED POST. |

Fortunately for you, Mexico shares your sentiments and feelings about not giving the US a chance to investigate. As a result, the killers got away with this horrific crime. But, oh well. Right? As long as Mexico doesn't let the big, bad US forever violate their sovereignty by *gasp* aiding in an investigation, that's a chance they've got to take. That's all that matters, I guess... Unfortunately, most of the rest of us (though I'm speaking for myself here, not for all the other Americans) think it's ridiculous that Mexico would be so uncooperative. Like it's so bad to let a foreign country help bring the killers to justice... Me thinks the US investigators would have uncovered something corrupt. Possibly a rather unfavorable situation for the particular Mexican authorities working this case at the time. Afghanistan had nothing to do with any of this. Really. I threw that in there just to do so. Please disregard. Whatever. From the bottom of my heart, I hope something terrible happens to the people who killed this woman. Seriously. |
