[Peace-discuss] More Good News out of Honduras: Extradition of Ex-president Hernandes

[Mildred O'brien]

Since the election and installation of Xiomara Castro as the first reform President of Honduras since the 2009 U.S.-assisted coup that ousted President Manuel Zelaya, convicted criminal former President Juan Hernades, the brother of also convicted drug dealer, will be extradicted today to the United States to be tried on DEA charges of drug trafficking. Several years ago  Harpers magazine featured the expose by Andrew Cockburn disclosing the extensive criminal drug export and human rights violations during the Hernandes regime, which embezzled $ millions from the Trump Administration to reduce immigrants to the U,S., only producing an exodus of Honduran asylum seekers to the United States expelled at the border.
