Editor’s note: Baja California is in the spotlight this week as violence, extreme weather and the pursuit of justice shape the headlines. In this edition, we examine the latest security figures, which place the state narrowly ahead of Guanajuato for the highest total homicide count in the first nine months of 2026. We also report on the helicopter rescue of 32 people stranded by a landslide outside Ensenada, as storms bring flooding and destruction to Mexico’s Pacific coast. Meanwhile, an Ensenada judge has found three men guilty in the 2024 murders of three foreign surfers—a significant development in a case that drew international attention. Together, these stories highlight the urgent work of protecting lives, responding to emergencies and holding perpetrators accountable.
