West Mesa murders
The West Mesa Murders are the killings of eleven women whose remains were found buried in 2009 in the desert on the West Mesa of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Several suspects have been named, but none were arrested or charged. While the killings are believed to be the work of a serial killer, the involvement of a sex trafficking ring has also been suspected. An anonymous tip to authorities at the Albuquerque Police Department and FBI linked the murders to a suspect from El Salvador. Police have also suspected the involvement of a sex trafficking ring operating through neighboring Texas that targets prostitutes during events throughout the Southwestern, Southern, and Western United States, especially regularly scheduled events, such as the New Mexico State Fair in this case, to take advantage of reliably heavier traffic. This trafficking ring is believed to operate in and around Las Vegas, El Paso, Killeen, and Denver.
