What Really Happened The Night 43 Students Disappeared?

This week, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto announced a new anti-corruption initiative that will investigate allegations made against the federal government, including himself.

It's a move, perhaps, in response to the rising public criticism of the government following the disappearance of 43 Mexican students.

Those students have been declared dead by the country's attorney general, but the bloody and tragic events that led up to those abductions are still shrouded in mystery.

Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson spoke with journalist John Gibler, who has spent months uncovering sound and documenting interviews with witnesses and survivors of that night, as well as the parents of the 43, left unsatisfied by the government's investigation.
