(75 posts)Hernandez plans to stay in the USA, claiming that going to Honduras "is too dangerous for him". So hardworking immigrants get deported yet narcos can stay legally un the USA.

(75 posts)if Asfura wins, there will be a better environment for him to return. His family is planning to recover the properties they had confiscated and even sue the Honduran government.

(75 posts)He's part of many conspirations that have stolen money from hondurans, their Social Security crisis is one example. He tried to privatize heathcare and education, stole millions during COVID and presented himself illegally to a reelection in 2017. His party was called a "Narco party" by judge Castel and I am sure that he will try to recover power, if he is allowed back. Two of his key allies are hiding in Nicaragua. They became Nicaraguan citizens 6 months before the 2021 election, but they are eager to return to help him to continue to destroy that country.

And as a side note, his police chief is also in the US facing justice for his multiple assassinations for Hernandez's cartel.
