The case of Mexico's 43 missing students from a rural teacher's college in 2014 remains unresolved, with only small bone fragments found. The families continue to demand justice, accusing the government of a lack of political will. This emblematic case combines cartel violence and corrupt authorities and highlights ongoing abuses in Mexico. Investigations have revealed the involvement of security forces and the military in the attack and cover-up. Despite promises from President López Obrador, progress has been slow, and key arrests are still lacking.
