OMG! Human rights for Mexicans? I saw their human rights. The right to beg from tourists because your government does NOTHING for you. I'm a conservative but I don't think its right for a country to have its old and crippled people wandering the beaches begging for enough to get their food for that day. The Mexicans are literally dying to get out of there - and he is lecturing us about human rights?

Medina never claimed to be a Mexican citizen till after he was convicted and his case was being appealed. If a Mexican national wants the Mexican government to defend him in court, he should request contact with his embassy when first arrested or before going on trial. Otherwise defendants will game the system as a ploy to getting their sentences or convictions thrown out.
