Garbage dump turned into grave; searching mothers dig tons to find them

In Tijuana’s Prado del Águila neighborhood, mothers known as 'buscadoras' have been searching for missing persons in a sanitary landfill operated by Grupo GEN. The site, located between Tijuana and Playas de Rosarito, has become a makeshift mass grave due to ongoing violence and disappearances. Residents describe the area as the 'Triangle of the Bermuda Triangle' due to frequent reports of people going missing. One resident, Antonio, recounts finding bloodstains on a truck and witnessing the discovery of human remains. Another woman, Teresa, receives a call indicating her daughter-in-law has been found alive after eight months of disappearance. The landfill, which is also used as a clandestine cemetery, has been linked to over 5,200 reported disappearances. Local groups continue their search efforts amid growing concerns about organized crime and state failure.
