The discovery of a clandestine crematorium in Jalisco brings to light the harsh realities of Mexico's ongoing war on drugs. Local officials suspect the Jalisco New Generation Cartel operates this site, compounding the region's status as the state with the highest number of disappearances — over 15,000 reported. Despite having seized the ranch months earlier, authorities failed to act until volunteers exposed the site. With a national tally of enforced disappearances exceeding 125,802, the scale of this crisis is alarming, reflecting a broader failure of Mexican governance amid escalating cartel violence, rooted in drug demand from the U.S.
A clandestine crematorium was discovered in Jalisco, revealing the brutal reality of Mexico's war on drugs, which has led to thousands of disappearances.
Jalisco, with over 15,000 missing persons, stands as a grim testament to the failure of the Mexican state to protect its citizens from cartel violence.
