A 17-year-old girl from Hobbs, New Mexico, was discovered buried in the courtyard of a home in southeast Juarez. Investigators said the girl, named only as D.C.L.G., was strangled and stabbed.
The girl’s family filed a missing persons report with the Hobbs Police Department earlier this month.
According to investigators, on July 19th, the girl’s relatives received messages via WhatsApp demanding a ransom for her release, with photos and videos attached as proof.
The Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the Chihuahua Attorney General’s Office Northern Zone is still conducting the investigation.
