""In none of these cases have they told us why they were murdered," said David Jesús Rincón Rey, the president of the Baja California Bar Association. "Instead of possible motives behind the various murders, only justifications exist.""
"Many cases in the Mexican state are labeled as being crime-related and simply dismissed, according to a story by the Border Report via CBS 17."
"With the safety of lawyers a concern, according to Rincón Rey, guidelines are being pushed to ensure that the violent deaths are treated as serious incidents."
"Lawyers who are threatened are entitled to police protection, highlighting the urgent need for improved safety measures in the legal profession."
Fifteen violent deaths of lawyers in Baja California have not been solved in the last two years. The president of the Baja California Bar Association, David Jesús Rincón Rey, stated that no motives have been provided for these murders. Many cases are dismissed as crime-related without thorough investigation. To address safety concerns, guidelines are being implemented to treat these deaths as serious incidents and to ensure police protection for threatened lawyers.
