On one level Ligia’s story belonged on a newspaper’s last page, the one that was reserved for tawdry crimes and gory traffic accidents. Yet her respectability, her beauty, and her argument that a woman should be allowed to defend her own honor, vigilante-style, struck a chord with many of her compatriots.
