Is anyone able to translate what Vanessa's momma said at the press conference?
Sorry if the translation ain't the best.
Señora Guillen talks too fast. This is basically what she said.
"First of all I want to thank God for getting me out of my bed and allowing me to be here.
I felt really sick yesterday when they were doing searches in the river. My daughter is not there!
They took to long to start searching for my daughter. I demand respect! For me and for my daughter!
I begged them to close this base and put the soldiers to find my daughter. I asked them to search room by room. Barrack by barracks. They never did. I demand justice!
She joined the army for her country and to defend each and all of us.
This is a rotten base! They say this is the best base? Best for what? To kidnap? To rape? To kill people?
I demand that they investigate all the sergeants, all her unit, all of them! That they investigate their cell phones, their houses, their ranches.
This girl is my life. My queen. My adoration.
I will fight tooth and nail until my daughter is brought back to me! ALIVE!
Four weeks ago I told them the name of a miserable and they didn't look him up. They didn't investigate him.
I want to speak to the government, to the President. More than 200 mothers say that their children will never enlist the army.
I want everyone to be investigated, from the lowest to the highest rank!
I ask the President to help me investigate. I do not want anything! I just want my daughter. If I can't find my daughter alive and if she is found dead, I'm going to close this damn base!
I am on pills to be here."
