Mexico President Felipe Calderon is calling on lawmakers to increase punishment for kidnappers. 

From the LA Times:

 Amid broad outrage over the slaying of a 14-year-old kidnapping victim, Mexican President Felipe Calderon on Thursday urged Congress to toughen punishments for abductors to include life in prison.

The proposal would make kidnapping in some cases subject to the harshest criminal sentence in Mexico, which formally abolished its long-dormant death penalty three years ago. Kidnappers currently face as long as 60 years in prison, or 70 years when they kill the victim. Murderers face a maximum of 60 years.
