Cecilia Alejandra Covarrubia Aguila
24 days old

On November 14, 1995, my daughter Cecilia left our house for the health center, carrying in her arms, her small, 24 day old daughter, Cecilia Alejandra who had an eye infection. She did not return.

Four days later, the body of my daughter Cecilia was found, raped and thrown in the desert. My granddaughter remains missing.

The crime against my daughter, like hundreds of women in Juarez , remains unsolved. The ex-prosecutor Solis Silva, without my consent, moved the body of my daughter to another cemetery. They lost the DNA evidence.

I am Soledad Aguilar, mother and grandmother who looks to you for the strength that, at time, fails me to continue looking for the murderer of my daughter and I hope one day to find my granddaughter who remains with her true identity denied. The authorities are not looking for her, just like they didn't look for my daughter. They live because I have made them live with my struggle for justice.
