Un grupo criminal en Honduras est\u00e1 utilizando canciones sobre tr\u00e1fico de drogas para glorificar la vida criminal para los ni\u00f1os reclutas, a quienes entrenan en el uso de armas de fuego de alto poder; otro ejemplo del uso de ni\u00f1os por parte del crimen organizado como una fuente de trabajo sacrificable y de bajo riesgo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ram\u00f3n Sabill\u00f3n, director de la polic\u00eda nacional de Honduras, dijo que en unos videos confiscados al grupo criminal \u201cLos Espinoza\u201d se mostraba a unos ni\u00f1os recibiendo entrenamiento en el uso de fusiles AK-47 y escopetas, inform\u00f3 La Tribuna<\/a>. Un ni\u00f1o de 12 a\u00f1os de edad aparece en una escena disparando, con habilidad, una escopeta semiautom\u00e1tica calibre 12. En uno de los videos, se ve a miembros del grupo bailando al son de \u201cnarcocorridos\u201d \u2013baladas que glorifican el tr\u00e1fico de drogas<\/a>\u2013 con sus armas en la mano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Seg\u00fan la polic\u00eda, el grupo opera en diversos municipios de la provincia (departamento) de Comayagua, y participan en el secuestro, el asesinato y el robo. Sabill\u00f3n dijo que un menor de edad en el grupo jug\u00f3 un papel importante en un reciente ataque contra la polic\u00eda, en el que resultaron heridos cinco agentes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n El uso de menores de edad, dijo Sabill\u00f3n, ofrece a grupos como Los Espinoza \u201coportunidad para actuar con impunidad\u201d, inform\u00f3 La Tribuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n El reclutamiento de ni\u00f1os es una t\u00e1ctica<\/a> que ha sido empleada por los grupos criminales en toda la regi\u00f3n. Los ni\u00f1os son una inversi\u00f3n de bajo costo para estos grupos, y son altamente prescindibles. La situaci\u00f3n jur\u00eddica de los menores de edad tambi\u00e9n hace que sea dif\u00edcil detenerlos o juzgarlos, y son menos propensos a ser sospechosos de haber cometido un delito en primer lugar. Tambi\u00e9n son testigos no fiables si se llaman a testificar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n VER TAMBI\u00c9N:<\/span> <\/strong>Noticias y perfiles de Honduras<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Los ni\u00f1os son f\u00e1cilmente seducidos por la glorificaci\u00f3n de la vida criminal. Los muchachos, en particular, a menudo llenos de una sensaci\u00f3n de vulnerabilidad, f\u00e1cilmente son tentados con la idea de lucir un arma y llevar un uniforme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Esto puede ayudar a explicar el uso de \u201cnarcocorridos\u201d en el entrenamiento de los j\u00f3venes por parte de Los Espinoza en Honduras. Esta m\u00fasica, que idealiza la violencia en torno al narcotr\u00e1fico, es particularmente famosa en M\u00e9xico<\/a>, donde ha echado ra\u00edces una s\u00f3lida cultura en torno al narcotr\u00e1fico. Aunque son menos populares en Honduras, los narcocorridos aparentemente gozan de cierta popularidad en la parte occidental del pa\u00eds<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Un grupo criminal en Honduras est\u00e1 utilizando canciones sobre tr\u00e1fico de drogas para glorificar la vida criminal para los ni\u00f1os reclutas, a quienes entrenan en el uso de armas de fuego de alto poder; otro ejemplo del uso de ni\u00f1os por parte del crimen organizado como una fuente de trabajo sacrificable y de bajo riesgo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":39770,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_newspack_byline_active":false,"_newspack_byline":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[334],"tags":[398,500],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"coauthors":[3872],"class_list":["post-6489","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-noticias-del-dia","tag-honduras-pais","tag-narcocultura","entry"],"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/grupo-criminal-de-honduras-usa-narcocorridos-para-atraer-ninos-reclutas\/","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Grupo criminal de Honduras usa narcocorridos para atraer ni\u00f1os reclutas","url":"http:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/grupo-criminal-de-honduras-usa-narcocorridos-para-atraer-ninos-reclutas\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/noticias-del-dia\/grupo-criminal-de-honduras-usa-narcocorridos-para-atraer-ninos-reclutas\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/en-1777dced25dbec624c8b15b8c073b033.jpg?resize=150%2C150&quality=100&ssl=1","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/en-1777dced25dbec624c8b15b8c073b033.jpg?fit=400%2C242&quality=100&ssl=1"},"articleSection":"Noticias del d\u00eda","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Michael Lohmuller"}],"creator":["Michael Lohmuller"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"InSight Crime","logo":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/logo.png"},"keywords":["honduras","narcocultura"],"dateCreated":"2017-03-27T23:59:20Z","datePublished":"2017-03-27T23:59:20Z","dateModified":"2023-04-24T20:36:55Z"},"rendered":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/insightcrime.org\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":344483,"url":"https:\/\/insightcrime.org\/es\/noticias\/nino-guerrero-muerto-construyo-franquicia-criminal-mas-conocida-america-latina\/","url_meta":{"origin":6489,"position":0},"title":"Ni\u00f1o Guerrero ha muerto.
