- The site, described by search collectives as an 'extermination center,' was allegedly used by the New Generation Jalisco Cartel for mass killings and training recruits.
- Families of Mexico's over 120,000 missing people are identifying items found at the site, such as shoes and clothing, as potentially belonging to their loved ones.
