Albuquerque homicides leave families heartbroken, frustrated

Associated Press  

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Laura Brown wipes tears from her face as she confronts the reality that her 6-year-old son and 8-year-old daughter will never see their father again. “It woke up our son and I really didn’t even know what to say for days,” she said. “It seems like every day I turn on the news and there’s another homicide, and it’s not fair for the families who are suffering through it,” she said. “All the time, people will just be like, ‘He was amazing, he would give you the shirt off his back,’” she said. Even me.” It’s been five months since Alicia Otero’s son, 24-year-old Elias Otero, was fatally shot outside his home.
