You might be tempted to think that the 52 Mexicans sitting on death row are victims according to this BBC article headed– ‘US blamed over death row Mexicans’ If the BBC wanted to inform rather than inflame, some background on the gruesome crimes which precipitated the death sentences would provide perspective.
