In a great loss to the nation and government of Mexico, Interior Minister Juan Camilo Mourino and seven others aboard the jet were killed in what appears to be an accident. Former Deputy Attorney General Jose Luis Santiago Vasconcelos also was amongst the dead. Both men were vital officers in the administration of President Felipe Calderon and were leaders of Mexico's "war" against the Drug Cartels.
Also lost was the Director of Social Communication for the Interior Ministry, Miguel Monterrubio, a former spokesman for President Calderon. A personal memorial of him written by FOXNews' Adam Housley can be seen and commented on *here*.
My condolences to all in their loss.
