Mexican Journalist Shot to Death Outside Home in Guerrero State
---------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, a Mexican journalist has been shot to death in front of his
home in Guerrero state-the same state where the students disappeared.
Francisco Pacheco Beltrán worked as a correspondent for the daily
newspaper El Sol de Acapulco, edited a weekly magazine, contributed to a
local radio broadcaster and ran a website with articles on crime. News
reports said Pacheco's work was critical of local authorities, including
the mayor of his city, Taxco.
