Mexican Mormon War: Drug Cartels vs Mormons

The cartels of Juarez, Mexico, are at war with a group of Mormons, some of whom are related to Mitt Romney. We went there to document the conflict, meet Romney's Mormon family, and find out more about how US policy is impacting the war on drugs.

Vice drives down into Mexico and does a great job pulling together multiple discrete elements of an area plagued with controversy and violence. The reporting is thoughtful, intelligent and a humanizing. I wish more reporting was like this.
