The disappearance of Miranda Sherlin Sánchez Escobar, a 17-year-old student from the Centro de Estudios Tecnológicos Industrial y de Servicios (CETIS), has raised alarms in the state of Morelos once again. Last seen on March 9 in Xochitepec while wearing her school uniform, her family has reported her missing, prompting serious concerns about safety in the region. Her school outfit included a long-sleeved purple blouse, a short-sleeved green military shirt with the CETIS emblem, green military trousers, and blue and white sneakers.

In response to the report from her family, the State Attorney General's Office (FGE) activated the Alba Protocol to expedite the search and recovery of Miranda. They have appealed to the public for any information that might lead to her whereabouts, illustrating the urgency of the situation. This response is indicative of the increasing number of cases of missing persons in Morelos, particularly related to gender-based violence.

Miranda's case is not isolated; it adds to a troubling trend of violence against women, particularly within educational settings in Morelos. The local community is becoming increasingly concerned about security in schools, as students face the harsh realities of violence and disappearances. The situation reflects broader social issues pertaining to gender safety and the need for effective measures to protect vulnerable populations in the region.
