Sumario:This writing accounts for the deployment of patriarchal pacts -between officials government of justice institutions and certain social actors- as a mechanism of reproduction, impunity and concealment of structural and interpersonal femicidal violence in Chiapas, Mexico, which favors the invisibility and under-registration of femicide. This is observed in the case of Francisca Flor de la Cruz Hernández, a tsotsil indigenous woman who in 2018 was arbitrarily accused of the homicide -despite having femicide characteristics- of her niece Esther.
