By Hellen Garc\u00eda<\/p>\n
My brother was shot in a robbery here in Quetzaltenango’s Zone 1 on March 16.<\/p>\n
After ten days in the hospital, he died. My brother, my companion, my friend, the only confidante of my wildest dreams was gone. And to make matters worse, a police officer asked for a bribe just to remove his body from the hospital.<\/p>\n
I made this video to ask the question: What is justice? Please watch and respond my these questions: What is justice to you? What are you going to do to eradicate this kind of violence? What are you going to do to improve our society?<\/p>\n
