Judging the Largest Massacre in El Salvador's History: Interview with former judge Jorge Guzmán Urquilla
A little over 40 years ago, the village of El Mozote and its surroundings was the scene of an unprecedented massacre. It was December 1981 when, in that community in northeastern El Salvador, almost 1,000 people were executed by the military in the worst massacre of civilians that the country experienced during the armed conflict (1980-1992). More than half the victims were children.
