At least one, possibly two or more men are wanted for the murders of 77 women in Juarez, Mexico. Almost 200 women have disappeared or have been found dead in the desert outside of Juarez, just south of the U.S. border, near El Paso. Under arrest, and a suspect in the murders is Abdul Latif Sharif, an Egyptian chemist who recently moved to Juarez from Texas. But subsequent to his arrest, more women were killed. Evidence led police to a mexican gang called "rebeldes" or rebels. Police theorize that Sharif may have paid the gang to continue to kill women while he was in jail in order to indemnify himself. Even after the rebel gang was put behind bars, other women have been killed, leading police and experts to believe that there are others acting as copycats in the area.
