Ohioan Murdered In Mexico? Family Thinks So
A University School alum was found dead in March. His family says he was murdered and the Mexican government is doing almost nothing.

AMERST, MA — A University School alum and football star was murdered in Mexico, his family says. Andrew Dorogi, who was getting ready to graduate from Amherst College, was found dead on March 16.
The 21-year-old was on vacation in Cabo San Lucas with friends. He was killed while returning from the trip. The investigation into Dorogi's death has made few public developments and family members are becoming increasingly frustrated, the Boston Globe reported.
“I don’t think the Mexican government is really doing that much,” Joseph Dorogi, 86, Andrew's grandfather, told the Boston Globe on Wednesday.

One of the few details that emerged came in April when an Amerst College official revealed that Dorogi had not committed suicide. Mexican prosecutors responded to multiple media outlets requests for an update by saying that a man's body had been found on train tracks outside Mexico City. The body had been electrocuted and suffered burns, the Boston Globe said. The Mexican government refused to say if the body was Dorogi's.
Dorogi was supposed to travel through Mexico City to the airport, his grandfather said.
