Federal officials announced that human trafficking will now carry penalties of 8 to 16 years in prison and fines of minimum 15,000 days\u2019 salary.   Up to now, the penalties were 6 to 12 years and 10,000 days\u2019 salary.  The new minimum fine translates to some $64,000.  The penalties increase by 50% if it involves trafficking minors.  The modifications in the law also now permits the authorities to instigate their own investigations.  Previously, it required a citizen report of trafficking.  Most of the human trafficking encountered in Mexico are those being transported through the country to enter the US.  This not only includes foreigners, but Mexican citizens as well.  [Ed. note: The &#8220;daily wage&#8221; fines are apparently based on Mexico&#8217;s minimum daily wage.]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>El Heraldo<\/em> (Tegucigalpa, Honduras) 7\/2\/10<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some 500 Hondurans emigrate daily to the US<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>San Pedro Sula, Honduras \u2013 At least 500 Hondurans leave daily for the US to seek \u201cthe American dream,\u201d according to the regional human rights commission.

The Honduran government has sent authorities to the state to lend assistance to their people.  The Hondurans are seeking refuge in neighboring states like California and Texas, although they prefer California.  This is due to two things.  Some Texas counties are seeking to implement laws similar to Arizona\u2019s \u201cwhich violate the rights of the migrants,\u201d while California is a state that is boycotting some of Arizona\u2019s commercial and economic activities in protest to the law.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.elheraldo.hn\/Pa\u00eds\/Ediciones\/2010\/07\/02\/Noticias\/Unos-20-000-hondurenos-ya-se-fueron-de-Arizona\">http:\/\/www.elheraldo.hn\/Pa\u00eds\/Ediciones\/2010\/07\/02\/Noticias\/Unos-20-000-hondurenos-ya-se-fueron-de-Arizona<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FORMER BORDER PATROL OFFICERS Visit our website: http:\/\/www.nafbpo.org Foreign News Report The National Association of Former Border Patrol Officers (NAFBPO) extracts and condenses the material that follows from Mexican and Central and South American on-line media sources on a daily basis.
