Guatemalan Prosecutor Among 7 Killed by Cartels

Seven people were found dead, in two vehicles, along a highway near La Mesilla, Guatemala, on Sunday.

All seven had been killed, and then their vehicles had been lit on fire.

On Tuesday, it was confirmed that one of the dead was federal prosecutor Irma Yolanda Olivares.

That confirmation only solidifies accusations that drug cartels were responsible.

Olivares had bee known for investigating and challenging the growing cartel influence, along the border with Mexico.
