Officials arrive on Oct 30, 2018, at the entrance to the youth shelter in San Jose Pinula, near Guatemala City, where 41 girls died in a February 2017 fire. Instead, most of the girls died as more than a dozen police officers argued over whether their supervisor, standing 10 feet away, should unlock the door with the keys hanging from her belt. The girls, who had broken no laws and posed no threat to society, were victims even before the fire. Then, in February of 2017, another batch of children began planning their own escape. At 6 am, still cold and wet, the girls began to complain.
