Argentina is reeling after the torture and live-streamed murder of three young women, sparking nationwide protests demanding justice. Cousins Morena Verri and Brenda del Castillo, both 20, and 15-year-old Lara Gutiérrez were found buried in a Buenos Aires suburb. Investigators suspect a drug gang killed them after an accusation of theft. Six individuals have been arrested, and authorities are seeking six more suspects.
