Benedict did meet a small group of victims of Mexico’s alarming drug violence
on Saturday after he spoke out strongly against the “evil” of
narcotics on his first official visit to the world’s second-most populous

Violent clashes between drug cartels and the state have claimed more than
50,000 lives in Mexico in the past five years and President Felipe Calderon
invited eight people affected by the turmoil for a private audience with the
pope.
