People are assuming that she had a choice to be with these criminals... maybe it was, but I think it more likely that she was forced.

@Bigman, its official, you are a moron. Mexico has so many different ethnic cultures. German, Jewish, Scandanavian, Czech, Italian, the list goes on. Could it be she just might be one of these nationalities?

Chances are, she was just another disposable piece of property to these losers. Unfortunately, there are probably 1000's of young women being treated like this down in Mexico. What a shame!

Funny how certain individuals cry about being called racist, but comments such as those from bigman1 and ExitiabilisOdium are clearly that.

as if she was in it for her own benefit... what would you do? Cartel shows up, wants you to date the boss... you say no = all family dead... yes = everyone lives... move along...

Not likely Marcelino....this isn't the first time beauty queens and the drug cartel have been linked. It happens so frequently that a movie was actually made about it called "Miss Bala". Sometimes the cartels seek out beauty queens...sometimes the girls seek out the "exciting" narco boyfriends. Money, prestige and power are a deadly combination.

bigman 1, you would poop your lace panties if a beautiful Mexican girl even gave you the finger.

Maybe se wasn't so innocent, but she didn't need to die. ExitiabilisOdium (deadly hatred), it marvels me how any kind of news piece brings out your hatred for your president. Maybe the death of "Macho" Camacho is also Obama's fault?
