What happened here is a small town mayor was murdered at the beginning of November.

And this mayor, he was the mayor of Uruapan, Michoacan.

And he had taken a full frontal approach to fighting organized crime.

in his city.

And what he said is, you know, we're going to shoot first and ask questions later.

And then November 1st, on Day of the Dead, he was shot dead in the middle of his town in front of a large crowd.

And protests erupted almost immediately in his town.

They were asking for justice.

They were asking for those responsible to be held accountable.

And now the protests have spread to Mexico City.

Most of that money, about $10 million, will go to Jamaica.

Prime Minister Andrew Holden has met with U.S.

officials and thanked them for the aid.

In total, since the storm hit two weeks ago, the US has pledged $37 million in aid for the region.

Jamaica had also been saving money for just this type of emergency.

But this was a historic storm.

Western Jamaica is devastated.

Schools, hospitals and tens of thousands of homes have been obliterated.

Insurance companies estimate the loss could total more than $4 billion.

Jamaica only has a fraction of that on hand.
