The #USCanadaOnTrial campaign, recently joined by Ana Garcia, spouse of former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández (JOH), calls for the declassification of documents in JOH's trial. Accused of serious human rights abuses and drug trafficking, JOH nevertheless received U.S. and Canadian support. The campaign stresses the need for public access to classified information, highlighting JOH's relationship with North American countries. Concurrently, the DEA was investigating JOH for drug trafficking, despite his role as an ally against organized crime and his establishment of an anti-corruption force with the OAS. In related news, U.S. federal prosecutors charged Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada, co-founder of the Sinaloa cartel, with fentanyl distribution, and a ProPublica story revealed a secret DEA investigation into cartel donations to Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s 2006 presidential campaign.
