VERGESSEN - Die Frauenmorde von Juarez iHeartPodcasts In der berühmten mexikanischen Grenzstadt Ciudad Juárez verschwinden hunderte Frauen. Diejenigen, die gefunden werden, haben zum Teil merkwürdige Symbole in ihre Körpern eingeritzt. Manche sind an den Handgelenken mit Schnürsenkeln gefesselt, als sie tot aufgefunden wurden. Allesamt wurden sie weggeworfen wie Abfall. In “Vergessen: Die Frauenmorde von Juárez” gehen Leyla Yenirce und Düzen Tekkal der Frage auf den Grund, wer oder was für diese Taten verantwortlich ist – ein Serienkiller, Organhändler oder etwa ein satanischer Kult? Die Untersuchungen involvieren viele verängstigte Zeug:innen, korrupte Behörden und schließlich auch eine Strafverfolgung auf beiden Seiten der Grenze, in Mexiko und in den USA.Dies ist die deutsche Übersetzung des englischen Podcasts “Forgotten: Women of Juárez”, im Original produziert von iHeartMedia, in der deutschen Version von Qzeng Productions für Podimo.
