Broken Anvil: Victims Fight for Justice After DEA Operation Leaves Four Dead in Honduras

The remote community of Ahuas, Honduras is located deep inside the country's Miskitu coast, a tightly-woven indigenous community long forgotten by government help but also by crime. In contrast to the rest of the country, which boasts the highest murder rate per capita in the world, Ahuas is a peaceful place with deep family ties.

An immigrant family is reunited at last, but their fight to stay together is far from over

This is the Carranzas’ first Christmas all together in 13 years. But the family worries their reunification in the U.S. may be short lived. Franklin, Sandra and their two sons are all undocumented immigrants who crossed the border illegally, fleeing the drug war violence and poverty of their native Izabal, Guatemala. Franklin arrived first in 2002, followed two years later by Sandra. Melissa was born in 2006 and is the family’s only U.S. citizen. In May the couple paid more than $12,000 to bring Emanuel, 11, and Pablo, 15, across the border. Now Sandra is fighting a federal deportation order against her, and the family worries that they will be separated again.
