À propos de cet audio

[Contains sensitive content] On a warm evening in a small Mexican border town, men and women started disappearing. Local officials were warned to stay away and when it was all done, up to 200 people were gone. The Making of a Massacre is five-part true story detailing how well-intentioned efforts to curtail the drug trade by the US and Mexican governments had devastating effects. Led by ProPublica's award-winning journalist Ginger Thompson and featuring true to life performances by notable actors Cheech Marin, Danny Trejo, Alana del la Garza, Clifton Collins Jr. and Snow Tha Product, listeners will hear how a town was caught in the crossfire of the drug war. When you add Making of a Massacre to your library you will receive all 5 episodes, each with a runtime of approximately 25 minutes.

Such an incredible story told in such detail. I was drawn in from the first episode to the last.

This was amazing

I hate the inhumane animals the gangs of Mexico are, the asinine US DEA government heads who decided they had to sell out the Mexicans they got to turn evidence to stop the flow of drugs into the US, thereby causing the massacre. And I'm disgusted at the cowardice of the Mexican government. I'm angry, and I'm devastated for the loss of families.

Devastating!

I had never even heard of this place or this situation and listening to it, knowing that it was a true story that it really happened, was horrifying.

We all hear about drug cartels and the war on drugs but I don't think we really can appreciate the horror of living in these places where these cartels have such a heavy hold.

It made me angry that the US refuses to be accountable for this, that they don't seem to give a damn in finding out who the informant was, letting these people live with this ambiguous loss for the rest of their lives after their children, husbands, loved ones have disappeared without a trace. They created this mess and refuse to be accountable for it. That makes me so sick.

The story was well researched and I liked the use of the actors to translate from spanish. Very well done and highly recommended.

Holy hell!
