Description

Countless Central American migrants continue to journey 3,000 kilometers from Mexico to the United States. Many are never seen again. Honduras is now building a DNA database of family members whose loved ones are missing. The information is being cross-checked with Honduran and Mexican records, as well as with data in the states of Arizona, California and Texas in an effort to identify matches. Stories of the rape, kidnapping and murder of Central American migrants passing through Mexico involve migrants who are never identified. teleSUR.
