The Mexican authorities seem like a bungling bunch.

[Swede]

As soon as they came up with "Two Canadian hitmen" I knew it was gonna be a farce. Those girls are lucky they left Mexico before these idiots thought to arrest them. They probably would not have lived long in prison.

1. Bah, they're just saying anything

they can think of because they don't give a shit about the whole thing.

2. Lesson Learned...

Your nuts if you are ONLY relying on your travel agent's advice for places to go for some sun--tourists are the number one target anywhere for criminals including the West.

3. One wonders how and where certain stereotypes gain a foothold...

...you know, like the stereotype of the bungling, corrupt Mexican federale who can be bribed with some pesos and a bottle of tequila. Yeah, mm-hmm, one really wonders...

[Swede]

5. Or maybe it's the fact the police let the staff mop the floor,

without any crime investigation. Or the fact they said two hitwomen from Canada are the prime suspects,who turn out to be soccer moms from Thunder Bay,before any proof. Or maybe they're just idiots like some posters on DU.

6. Now these supercops are blaming someone in the wedding party.

4. I was in Mexico during the Winter school break...

They are very sensitive to the tourists...

It seems like they were unprepared for this kindda thing...
