Good Articles

Two good articles on NPR that discusses the situation in Honduras. The corruption of the Police is one of the biggest issues that they currently are dealing with. I saw it in my own site, I was told that the head of the Police in my site could not go around the town without the other police because if he was caught alone he would have been killed by different townspeople in a revenge killing. The townspeople wanted revenge for different crimes (including murder that the police chief had committed against the people). Please keep in mind that this is what I was told so it is totally possible that it is not true but I believe it. So, police corruption is alive and well in Honduras.
