A little boy disappears and the whole of Spain suffers with the family – until the perpetrator is convicted
A woman appears to be burning in a marketplace. Countless people film with their cell phones and cheer as the woman is shot with guns and flames erupt from her chest. As her head tilts forward, the crowd applauds. The woman is a doll modeled after a black woman. In Coripe, southern Spain, residents celebrate the annual burning of Judas on this sunny day in April 2018. A brutal Catholic festival in which the most hated person in the country is set on fire as a doll instead of Judas.
This year it is Ana Julia Quezada Cruz.
