“It is still not possible to understand that he is no longer there”
Guadalupe Rodríguez still hopes that her husband, Jesús Baños García, will enter the door of the home they shared one day, despite the fact that he died at 2 in the morning, one of the 26 fatalities on Line 12.
“It is still not possible to understand that he is no longer there. At that time we were having some problems, so he was living at his parents’ house, so it had been a few days since he had come home “.
“For me he continues to work, for me he continues to play soccer,” says Guadalupe in a testimony shared by the firm Carbino Legal.
Her greatest wish after losing her partner is to be certain that what happened to her family will not be repeated on the Gold Line, which the Head of Government Claudia Sheinbaum and President Andrés Manuel López Obrador have promised will be restored this year.
“Hope that this situation doesn’t happen again because it’s easy for them to say, ‘it’s settled and we’re going to start over with the line.’ We are so close (to Line 12), perhaps, and we use the line that for me it is not that they start building it again, that it stays and that’s it.
“At some point if it is not done well, it can happen again, with what confidence does one get back on it?” Says Guadalupe.
