Korean Man who Died in Mexico Returned -- Missing Organs:

The body of a Korean man who died in Mexico has been returned to his family ― without his brain, stomach and heart.

Mexican authorities claim that the man, 35, surnamed Kim, died of natural causes despite a scuffle with other people just before his death. His widow fears that someone is trying to cover up the truth.

[...] According to the widow, Kim and other men were engaged in a fight at a Monterrey karaoke on Jan. 3, which was filmed by surveillance cameras there. In a few minutes, Kim passed out and was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

"More than a week later, I received the autopsy result that says 'no external injuries.' I was dumbfounded," she wrote on the Cheong Wa Dae website.

[...] She said Mexican police are not investigating the case because Kim died ― on paper ― of natural causes.

    It wasn't "whataboutism" it was calling out a bullshit argument. The only way the US can help Mexico's corruption problems is to legalize drugs and thus stop the drug war which would chop the balls right off the cartels. Without suggesting solutions "Yeah lets IGNORE the problem. That will make us seem so much more enlightened. /s" just seems like smarmy bullshit trying to keep the "mexicans suck" meme alive.
