Mexico’s attorney general’s office on Monday questioned assertions by an Argentine-led team of forensics experts who expressed doubts about the government’s conclusion that 43 missing college students were all killed and their bodies burned.
The Argentine Forensic Anthropologists team suggested Saturday that the Mexican government made errors in developing the genetic profiles of 16 relatives and failed to properly secure crime scenes.

The Argentine team said that government forensic experts made errors in developing the genetic profiles from blood samples taken by family members. The attorney general’s office said Monday there was just one “administrative error of transcription,” which was corrected and did not affect the outcome of sophisticated tests carried out in Innsbruck, Austria.
