Murdered U.S. army soldier VanessaGuillén is being remembered by Mexican singer IvonneGalaz.
After Guillén's disappearance made national headlines, the lawyer for her family confirmed on Sunday that the U.S. Army positively identified the soldier's remains near the Leon River in Texas last week. Guillén, 20, a soldier in Fort Hood, was declared missing by her family since April, but the search for her only intensified last month when the family went public with appeals to find her.
Backed by an acoustic guitar, Galáz sympathizes with Guillén's family in her heartbreaking corrido."Her suffering family asking, 'Where is the girl?'" she sings in Spanish. Galáz sadly notes Guillén's"light has been put out" while highlighting her heritage in the haunting final line:"The Mexican people, we will be there so that her case is not forgotten.
