It didnt occur overnight. It has been building for years as drug cartels. responding to the insatiable demand for illegal drugs in the United States. have migrated to Guatemala and Honduras and El Salvador. It is caused by members of Central American gangs. arrested and imprisoned in the United States and then deported. who have resumed their threats and extortion and killing sprees with a vengeance. It is caused by abusive and corrupt police forces and judges and the failure of the Central American governments to address the lawlessness and impunity in their own countries. It is caused by the lack of educational and employment opportunities that are among the reasons Central American youth join the gangs.
