Angry demonstrations broke out in Mexico City on Friday as hundreds of women protested the gruesome slaying and mutilation of a young woman. 9News
The man, who has been arrested and purportedly confessed to killing Escamilla with a knife, mutilated her body and flushed part of her corpse into the sewer.
The protesters read a statement Friday saying "it enrages us how Ingrid was killed, and how the media put her body on display.""It enrages us that the public judges us, saying 'this isn't the right way to express your rage,'" the statement continued. "We are not mad, we are furious." Instead, officials condemned media outlets for publishing the photos and said they were investigating police who may have taken the photos with their cellphones at the crime scene.
