A photo was taken of 18-year-old Debanhi Escobar in the early morning hours of April 9th, 2022, on the side of a highway near Monterrey, Nuevo León, in Mexico. She was dressed for a night out, standing in the dark, far from where she was supposed to be.

The photo taken of her that night would become one of the most widely circulated images in the country. But what happened before that moment and what followed has raised more questions than answers.

In this episode, we retrace Debanhi’s final known movements, examine the gaps in the timeline, and explore how her case sparked a national reckoning.

If you have any information, please contact the Federal Prosecutor’s Office in the state of Nuevo León at 8181-547402.
