abstract="This paper analyzes two types of homicide: those where the authorities were able to determine the reason for the murder, and those registered as &quot;unknown homicides&quot;. The aim is to understand and explain the different factors that come together in a criminal investigation and thus contribute to classify an event as murder &quot;known&quot; or &quot;unknown&quot;. Our findings indicate that age (<10 years), location (indoors) and substance (drugs) are key elements to explain how investigation on homicide are processed by the criminal justice system in Mexico.<p /> <p>Language: es</p>",
