There were some photos posted yesterday in the local news showing a man and a woman who were caught by local people for stealing from individuals and businesses in a town a few miles away from us. They were taken to the local indigenous leaders, who after talking to them, decided to apply "Mayan correction," which meant taking them to the center of town, having them remove their shirts, and whipping them. It is amazing that Guatemalan traditions are so strong that this is still happening in 2022.
