Girl Burned By Mob in Guatemala - Sophie Potrykus 2nd

        Recently, a video has surfaced showing a mob located in Guatemala burning a teenage girl. This video has sparked massive controversy and now has the rest of the world questioning Guatemala's justice system. This country is notoriously known for its massive crime rate, being one of the highest in the world.
         This horrible crime happened in the rural village of Rio Bravo, which is common along with the multiple waves of mob burning a occurring earlier in the year. In the near future, hopefully Guatemala's justice system can figure out a way to handle these reoccurring crimes, and put families in the country at ease.

  1. I also did a current event on this and it was very awful to read about, I feel terrible for this person but also all the other things that are going on very similar or worse than this.
