Mexico’s Kidnapping Epidemic
Mexico is known for being corrupt with kidnappings. The local gangs make it a point to take victims in order to easy ransom money. They are known for grabbing people from taxis or the street, having the victim empty out their bank account to give them all of their money, and then setting them free. They also fully kidnap victims and keep them hostage until the government or the family pays the money. This was what happened with Gallo.
