Violence and Grief Define Life In Honduran Capital

TEGUCIGALPA, HONDURAS - JULY 19: Abner Soul Estrada Palma, 24, recovers in a hospital ward after being recently attacked with a machete on July 19, 2012 in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. Honduras now has the highest per capita murder rate in the world and its capital city, Tegucigalpa, is plagued by violence, poverty, homelessness and sexual assaults. With an estimated 80% of the cocaine entering the United States now being trans-shipped through Honduras, the violence on the streets is a spillover from the ramped rise in narco-trafficking.
