27 hacked-up bodies have been discovered in Mexico near the U.S. border.
Searchers have found 27 corpses in clandestine graves in the Mexican border city of Reynosa, across from McAllen, Texas, and many of them were hacked to pieces, volunteer searchers said Wednesday.
González said some of the 16 burial pits contained two or three bodies, and that the clandestine burial site may have been used by gangs as recently as a month or two ago. Some were covered by only 1 1/2 feet of earth.Drug and kidnapping gangs use such sites to dispose of the bodies of their victims.
"People are starting to shake off their fear and have begun reporting" the body dumping grounds, González said. She acknowledged that some tips may come from"people who worked there and are no longer in that line of work."
