Found in elpasotimes.com

3 judges resigned from their positions after they acquitted a man for killing a teenage girl in Juarez. The mother shorty after the death of her daughter was killed during a protest against the ruling. It is believed that the man acquitted is also the main suspect for the killing of the mother. The Chihuahua legislature is now enforcing judicial reform. They are the first state to adopt a system of oral trials and stricter standards for evidence

Lord,

Your are light in this dark place. Let your hand and power be on this situation in Juarez. Comfort the family who is suffering after losing a mother and a daughter. I know it must be extremely tough on them, but even during this mourning period let them lean on you with all their strength. God I know you can do wonders for the people in Juarez, you will be swift in your justice against those who do evil in your eyes. Lord I also pray for the judges and the man acquitted, let them see your power and wonder. Let them also see your love and realize the injustice they have caused for others. Lord I also pray for the legislation system in Mexico, allow them to lean on you for understanding and wisdom. Let them see that you are the only absolute truth and you will be glorified forever.

Amen.
