SAN DIEGO (Border Report) -- Independent groups that look for missing people throughout Baja California are asking the state to provide them with sites where walls can be covered with pictures of those missing persons. Paula Sandoval, president of the United Family Searchers Association, says they hope the first wall will be set up in Tijuana. "We want a place where the faces of all our missing could be visible, so people know we miss seeing them in our homes," she said, adding that they are looking for central locations with high foot traffic. Students, volunteers help fingerprint migrant remains with hopes of identifying them "It would have to be downtown or the Río area where families could come by and place the pictures of their missing loved ones." The independent groups had asked for the pictures to be placed inside government buildings, but the idea was rejected. Some, however, have been attaching photos outside buildings without approval. "In the meantime, we'll be placing pictures on the exterior of buildings as a simulation to give exposure to our missing family members," Sandoval said. "This is sort of a protest."
