El Wicked's Confession to Maracela Escobardo's Murder

The cases of Ruby Freira and Maracela Escobardo were officially closed. As his trial approached, a wicked retracted his confession to Maracela's murder. By January 2015, all the members of the Escobardo family who had escaped into America had been granted permanent political asylum. The immigration judge who ruled in favor of Juan's application specifically stated that the Mexican government is unable or unwilling to control actors who persecute human rights defenders. In October 2020, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights announced that it would give Mexico three months to provide its response to the Escobardos' complaints of human rights violations.
