Supporters of the opposition celebrated in Honduras when the president s brother was sentenced in the US
BBC- Inside a New York courtroom, the president of Honduras, Juan Orlando Hernández, was known simply as “Co-conspirator 4”.
Yet being stripped of the deference his position traditionally commands was the least of his concerns. US prosecutors now consider him to be intimately and demonstrably linked to violent drug cartels.
In 2019, his younger brother, Juan Antonio “Tony” Hernández, was found guilty of smuggling tonnes of cocaine into the United States during a criminal career that spanned over a decade.
To have your brother sentenced to life plus 30 years for drug trafficking would be a stain on any politician’s record. But under the full glare of the world’s media, prosecutors alleged his government was corrupt to its core – causing irreparable damage to his legitimacy as president.
