Tras el secuestro y asesinato de su hija Karen a manos de Los Zetas, en 2014, Miriam Rodríguez convirtió su dolor en una cruzada implacable por justicia. Sola, y sin ningún tipo de entrenamiento, acechó a sicarios, descifró redes sociales y mapeó ranchos abandonados hasta encarcelar a varios de los asesinos. Su lucha no solo fue una venganza, sino también la viva muestra de un México roto por la corrupción institucional, la ausencia de autoridades y el terror que somete a las comunidades.

Adéntrate en situaciones que van más allá de la razón y ponen a prueba nuestros miedos y anhelos más profundos, como el inquietante enfrentamiento de un pastor contra fuerzas oscuras, manifestaciones inexplicables tras el terremoto del 85 o la aparición del mítico charro negro.

With the religious stigma of unwed motherhood turning families against daughters and a Church and State wanting “illegitimate” children sent abroad, mothers were lied to, given forms to sign that they didn’t understand, or even told their baby had died, all to further supply this international adoption pipeline.

The biggest crime story in American history began on the night of March 1, 1932, when the 20-month-old son of Charles and Anne Lindbergh was snatched from his crib in Hopewell, New Jersey. The news shocked a nation enthralled with the aviator, the first person to fly solo nonstop across the Atlantic. American law enforcement marshalled all its resources to return “Little Lindy” to the arms of his parents - and perhaps even more energized were the legions of journalists catering to a public whose appetite for Lindbergh news was insatiable.
