This murder is just another sign of just how out of control things are south of the border. The first agent assigned to this case was killed last month.

CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico— Gunmen killed the aide of a Mexican federal agent investigating the death of a crime reporter — a month after the first agent assigned to the case was shot dead, authorities said Thursday.
The bullet-riddled body of Pablo Pasillas, 33, was found Wednesday next to a car in the northern border city of Ciudad Juarez, said Ángel Torres, a spokesman for the federal attorney general’s office.
