"dropping from the helicopter" may be a clue. The hospital didn't do it. A harsh reality is that all soldiers are trained killers; they are not trained policemen. We learned that in Vietnam, Kosovo, Iraq, now Afghanistan. To a soldier, everyone is the enemy. My guess is same as yours: the soldiers were angry, assumed the man was guilty, and exacted a confession, translated as "telling us what we expect to hear." Or, possibly, not cooperating, or killed during "extraction." Muy triste, man's humanity to man.
I doubt that many believe the police will ever reveal the truth.

I want to foster discussions on news and issues that will bring a better understanding of Mexico.
