Killing of U.S. Journalist Among Cases Reopened in Mexico 
----------------------------------------------------------



Mexican prosecutors have reopened investigations into the deaths of 21
people during the 2006 protests against the Oaxaca state government. The
victims include the independent American journalist Brad Will. The
36-year-old Will was shot and killed while covering the popular uprising
against then-Governor Ulises Ruiz. Will's own camera captured the
shooting, with armed men firing into the crowd from a distance.
