Ace Nova Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 So tragic. Not so sure this is a result of "just" the high crime rate there....seems like it was the doing of a psychotic boyfriend....could have happened anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracii Guns Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Atrocious. The BBC article reported that this sort of thing happens often in Honduras, just normally to unknown women instead of beauty queens. With it being part of a bigger problem, hopefully this story will attract media attention to the cultural context of the murder and hopefully that might be dealt with, rather than just this murder in isolation.

It is almost a way of life. I've met a girl from there, she was going to school in the states. One day she lost contact with her friend back home. Never heard from her again. She assumed the worse. She was devastated, but she was prepared for it.Atrocious. The BBC article reported that this sort of thing happens often in Honduras, just normally to unknown women instead of beauty queens.

So far, only people who curiously google statistics know about how bad it is over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
