Since 1993, over 400 women and girls have been violently killed and thousands have disappeared in Ciudad Juárez and Chihuahua, Mexico. Under fire for their inability to solve these crimes, the police have tortured people to confess to the murders. "Dual Injustice,", tells the story of Neyra Cervantes, who disappeared in 2003, and her cousin, David Meza, who was tortured to confess to her murder. The video played a pivotal role in the campaign that led to David's release from prison in June 2006.

Yet, Neyra's murderer remains at large and her family is just one among hundreds that is fighting for justice.

On August 11th, Gael Garcia Bernal and Diego Luna held a press conference to urge Mexico's President Calderón to resolve these murders once and for all. Please join them by signing this petition, which calls for an proper investigation into Neyra's case and the punishment of those responsible for torturing David.

Resolving Neyra's murder would bring renewed promise for hundreds of other families. Act Now to help solve this case and stop violence against women in Mexico.
ACT NOW!
