Migrant Center Fire Survivor Haunted by Tragedy in Mexico

CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico - A survivor of the deadly fire at a migrant detention center in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, continues to grapple with the trauma of the event, which claimed the lives of 40 people. The fire, which occurred last year, has left an indelible mark on the survivor, who says they remember the horrific incident 'every day.'

Meanwhile, families of the victims are still fighting for justice. Groups representing the families and relatives of those who perished have voiced their concerns over the lack of progress in the criminal cases. Eleven individuals, including eight government officials, have been charged in connection with the fire, but none of the cases have reached the trial stage.

The families and their advocates are demanding a thorough and transparent investigation into the circumstances surrounding the fire. They are also calling for accountability for those responsible for the safety and well-being of the migrants housed at the detention center. The slow pace of the legal proceedings has added to the families' grief and frustration, as they continue to seek closure and justice for their loved ones.
