In a horrific tragedy in Honduras, at least 41 women inmates were reportedly killed in a prison riot on Tuesday. Around 26 of those deceased were burned to death, while others were shot or stabbed. President Xiomara Castro claimed the riot was planned by the "mara" street gangs—which dominate the prisons—with the knowledge and complicity of security authorities and vowed to take "drastic measures."
