(Reuters) - A Mexican journalist who wrote about crime in the violent Gulf Coast state of Veracruz was found beheaded on Wednesday, local media reported, the latest grisly murder of a reporter in one of the world's most dangerous nations for journalists.
The body of Julio Valdivia, 44, who specialized in the "nota roja" journalism that focuses on gruesome crime and violence, was found in the remote Tezonapa municipality, about 100 kilometers from the state capital, Veracruz.
quote:
"Valdivia was found near the train tracks, beheaded and tortured," said the newspaper staff member, who did not wish to be identified.
quote:
El Universal and several other local news outlets reported that Valdivia was beheaded, the fourth journalist death in Mexico this year.
quote:
In 2019, about half of all murders of journalists around the world occurred in Mexico, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.

This is why journalists do not want to report on the real types of crime in the United States

Sure journalists in Mexico have it bad but at least Donald Trump didn’t tweet something mean about them

Another casualty of America’s fake drug war.

I would argue that the person that did it absolutely got a head in life

They should find out where Gregg Williams was: “Kill the head and the body will die.”

“That....is a human...head.”
Who know the movie with that line?

Think they used a moving train to behead the guy?

And the "Detective" in that photo was probably there when it happened.

Trying to figure out who did it is a real head scratcher.

One thing you can say about Julio is that he always kept his head in the game.
