Will Grant "Honduras prison fire: Tragedy repeats itself" BBC 17 February 2012 - contains the following chunks:

  • In May 2004, more than 100 inmates were killed in a blaze in a jail in San Pedro Sula.

  • For example, it has been reported that as many as half of the inmates in Comayagua still had not been charged or were awaiting trial for alleged gang affiliations.

  • Honduras is not a major producer of drugs, yet it is part of an important corridor for cocaine traffic from Colombia, through Mexico and into the United States. The influence of Mexican drug cartels is growing in Central America, and Honduras is a key battleground. The government says its war on the drug gangs is its priority.

Seems like some of that should probably make it into the article. EdwardLane (talk) 10:08, 17 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
