Ecuadoran people smuggling ring broken
Authorities broke a ring moving thousands of Latin Americans and Asians to the United States via Central America. Gloria Canales, 40, head of the operation, was arrested in Ecuador and faces charges including smuggling and homicide. The U.S. says she used bribery and a wide network across Peru, Mexico, India and China. She was deported to Honduras and could face up to 30 years in prison. The Clinton era push seeks similar laws in the region.
