A group of international experts say that the Mexican government falsified investigations into the disappearance of 43 students in 2014 from the start
MEXICO CITY -- A group of international experts said Monday the Mexican government falsified investigations into the disappearance of 43 students in 2014 from the start.
Former Colombian prosecutor Ángela Buitrago said the experts found evidence that authorities withheld or falsified evidence from the start of the search.
“It was falsified from the first day to the last day,” said Buitrago, who is part of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights group supporting the investigation.
Buitrago said investigators, prosecutors and military personnel altered crime scenes and records. A government drone video obtained by the experts showed marines and police climbing around the area where the students were allegedly killed with little control.
