El presente artículo es un análisis retrospectivo que muestra las características socio demográficas de las víctimas de feminicidio durante el año 2009 en el estado de Tamaulipas. Los datos de la investigación son resultado de la información obtenida del Centro de Estudios Fronterizos y Promotor de los Derechos Humanos con sede en Reynosa, Tamaulipas. Durante el período de estudio se presentaron 46 casos de feminicidios; el grupo etario que presenta una mayor vulnerabilidad lo constituyen el de las mujeres que se encuentran entre los 31-40 años de edad; es en las mujeres casadas (amas de casa) donde se suscitaron más casos de este fenómeno social y en una gran proporción existía un conocimiento previo entre la víctima y el victimario, donde el factor celos desencadenó la acción, argumentando el agresor una supuesta infidelidad por parte de la víctima. La muerte en las mujeres se produjo principalmente por golpes (puñetazos) y en un gran porcentaje el cuerpo de la víctima fue abandonado en lugares despoblados (basureros, brechas, terrenos baldíos). La mayoría de los casos se presentaron en los municipios más cercanos a la frontera norte (Reynosa, Matamoros, Nuevo Laredo y Río Bravo).
