The grieving mum was killed on 10 May - Mother's Day in Mexico - when gunmen broke into her home and shot her 12 times.
Although Miriam had requested armed protection in the years after her cartel takedown, she once said, as reported by the New York Times: "I don’t care if they kill me. I died the day they killed my daughter.
"I want to end this. I’m going to take out the people who hurt my daughter and they can do whatever they want to me."
Miriam's son Luis continues his mum's mission, helping to find cartel members responsible for the abduction and murder of families' loved ones through the San Fernando Missing Persons Activists Collective.
