"International Investigators Abandon Search for 43 Missing Mexican College Students"

International investigators have given up the search for 43 missing college students in Mexico after eight years of trying to uncover the truth. The case of the students, who disappeared in 2014, has become symbolic of the epidemic of disappearances in Mexico, with the government repeatedly lying about what happened. The group of international investigators found evidence implicating the government and military in the crime, but their final report concludes that this is as far as they can go. The families of the missing students continue to suffer, knowing that the state was responsible but with no one being held accountable.
