The Remarkable Story of Miriam Rodriguez

Last weekend on March 10th the UK celebrated Mother’s Day. They say that there is nothing like a Mother’s Love. When you have a child you vow to love and protect them for the rest of your life. One woman took that vow so seriously that she came up against some of the most dangerous people in Mexico. Often only armed with a gun, fake ID and a disguise she gave hope to hundreds of parents of missing children.

Summary
In this episode, Cherry shares the case of Miriam Rodriguez, a mother in Mexico whose daughter was kidnapped by the Los Zetas drug cartel. Miriam paid the ransom but received no news about her daughter. She took matters into her own hands, conducting her own investigation and eventually discovering the location of her daughter's remains. Miriam faced frustration with the authorities and the lack of response from the government. The case highlights the brutality of the drug cartel and the challenges faced by families seeking justice. Miriam Rodriguez, a mother from Mexico, took on a drug cartel single-handedly to seek justice for her daughter's abduction and murder. Despite facing death threats and lack of support, Miriam went to great lengths to track down and expose the gang members involved. She infiltrated their families, gathered evidence, and handed them over to the police. Miriam's determination and bravery inspired others, but tragically, she was shot and killed on Mother's Day. Her story serves as a reminder of the love between a mother and child and the power of one person's fight against injustice.
