Mexican Judge Assassinated in Acapulco Amid Rising Violence
A judge, Edmundo Roman Pinzon, was shot dead in his car outside a courthouse in Acapulco, Mexico, amid ongoing cartel violence in the region. This incident is part of a broader pattern of violence in Guerrero state, which has seen numerous attacks linked to organized crime, including the recent murder of a federal congressman and the discovery of dismembered bodies. Despite the escalating violence, President Claudia Sheinbaum has maintained a strategy focused on social policy rather than a renewed "war on drugs."
