| Summary: | Mexico City 2003. One of the most lawless cities in the western hemisphere. Of more than 5,000 crimes committed every day, just 10% are reported. Just 10% of those lead to a conviction. Enter Rudolph Giuliani, the former mayor of New York and Mexico City's latest weapon against murder and corruption. Many Mexicans baulk at the 4.3 million dollars 'plus expenses' Giuliani's firm is charging for their services, and the police, among others, are reluctant to cede control. But Giuliani cut New York City's crime rate by 65%. Can he do the same in Mexico City? |
