Ghost Story

The long border between Mexico and the US state of Texas is dotted with little towns. They are towns of adobe walls - towns out of legend, with names such as El Paso, Juarez, Del Rio, Laredo, Reynosa and Matamoros.

They line both sides of the Rio Grande, the river that forms the boundary between Texas and the U.S. There was a time, not too long ago, when life could be very good on 'the border. However the illegal immigrants and the drug cartels brought up many problems to this area.

People in the border of the two countries had no fear of drug-related violence; however they were soon to discover how wrong they had been.
A certain day one of those small towns woke up around the fear and horror of a murder. Juan Mario, a 30 years old men had been brutally killed while trying to cross the border. His body was founded without his 2 legs and arms by the main road that connects the town to the next village. But the unusual was the fact that his chest had the phrase written by knife cuts: “ tu eres el proximo” (you are the next).
The mystery covered the small town and all the habitants were wondering who could have done such thing and who the next victim could be. The drug cartel has been actively acting in the border and bringing horror to the habitants and citizens that illegally try to leave Mexico.
Story continues when the next immigrant tries to leave Mexico to cross the American border
End Note: I am not a good storyteller, however I want to add this paper in me research paper to give an example of how the violent the life in the border is and how that could be described as a ghost story. I used information from news websites that show the stories of many people that had their end in the hands of drug cartels.
