Protest For Peace
Looking for justice,
family members and
friends of victims of
crime marched together
for peace on Saturday.
Parents who lost a child
and those who lost a
brother, sister,
husband, wife and friend
all gathered in a shared
pain.
The group not only lost
a loved one, but lost
their peace to the hands
of criminals and
marched to pressure
legislators for changes
in the penal code.
Leaders of the group
said that although the
government announced
plans to combat crime,
it is not enough and
will not rest until the
killings on the streets
come to an end.
The protest was held in
the Plaza de la Justicia
in downtown San José
