After mayor beheaded in Mexico, a former prosecutor is arrested in connection with the murder

Summary

Former prosecutor and police official Germán Reyes was arrested for the brutal killing of Alejandro Arcos, Chilpancingo's newly elected mayor, found decapitated in October.

Reyes, a former military officer, was previously blamed for working with a local gang, shocking officials who had attributed the murder to gang violence.

His arrest suggests deep corruption among Guerrero officials and raises doubts about hiring ex-military for police roles.

The gang violence in Chilpancingo, dominated by warring factions like the Ardillos and Tlacos, has led to gruesome public killings, widespread fear, and destabilized governance.

Can we say that Mexico is a failed state?

Yes... And getting worse by the day, funny how giving absolute power to the facist party works...

Do you think the Morena party is facist? Or are you referring to the past? Just saying shit?

I don't think they are, they have shown their fascism since the kks was president and have keep going (just like the puppet promised to).
Here, read the definition first, then come back and tell me they haven't behaved like a fascist party over and over.
Yes, I know they love to claim to be leftists and the puppet/president is a woman, those have nothing to do with how they behave, what they do or how they act against the people, their hate for the constitution or their constant disdain for everything that tells them they are doind ilegal things or how something they do will have a negative impact against the whole country.

Or do you think they feel happy about Trump winning the US elections just because?
