Karina Silva Zamora vigil at PUCV

While walking around Casa Central (main campus for PUCV) on Monday, I noticed that some fellow students were using white paint to write on enormous strips of black plastic, then hanging them as banners all along the inside of the courtyard.

Posters inside of Casa Central

I stopped to ask one of the students what they were doing. The posters all began with the word justicia, justice, in big capital letters.

The girl I asked told me that they were putting up posters for a vigil that would be held that evening for her friend and classmate, Karina, who was murdered. I later realized that Monday was the one month anniversary of her death. The purpose of the posters, and the vigil, is to raise awareness that the police have not yet investigated her case, and in a certain way to put pressure on them.

I edited a video out of the footage I took from the vigil, and from talking to the student.

    Samuel,

    La ultima vez que hablé con María (la chica entrevistada) me dijo que sí había una novedad con el caso, no recuerdo bien que era.

    Ojala que el caso se resuelva para la tranquilidad de la familia y los amigos de Karina.
