The family was ambushed by an armed group while traveling from the town of Bavispe in Sonora state to Galeana in Chihuahua state between 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. local time, according to Mexican authorities.

Epstein Didn't kill himself. Hence why I get my news through Tim Pool and other personalities so they can do the work of going through BS like EpsteinSuicideCoverUp Epsteindidnotkillhimself ABCCoverup

So sorry for his loss. New beginning I pray 🙏

🙏🏻💜

The American Party has declared all drug cartels, based in any geographical location in the Americas as criminal terrorist organizations. Until such time as an agreement has been ratified to lay down arms in surrender, self protection against said cartels will be conducted.

ABC/Disney, CBS protect pedophiles. Jeffrey Epstein didnt kill himself. They squashed a story that could have saved children from being abused and killed.

Why would any sane person take their family to that shit country?

Difficult decision? I'd hate to see what it would take to make the decision easy.

Clear thinking boy. Good luck xxx

So sorry for their loss

The people of Mexico should accept Trump's offer to help them destroy the cartels once and for all.

1 encounter with Mexican drug cartel ok 2 encounters? My heart aches for these children but something's way off. This cult moved to Mexico so they could marry as many as possible even little girls

Difficult decision? He put them there in the first place

I hope all his young daughters with their adult husbands get out safely. Maybe they can finally find a safe place where they voluntarily gave up their U.S. citizenship to become lawbreakers in a lawless Mexico.

I'm wondering if they'll be forgiving christians like the family of Botham Jean? 🤨

How many kids and wives does he have? Seems like a lot . We’re they some cult?

Well, one of his wives

I wonder if any of those guns came from Fast and Furious? Obama sure killed a lot of people & never served anybody but himself....

ABC doesn't care...ABC protected a pedophile ring and through inaction allowed child rape to continue for 3 years EpsteinCoverup
