Hernandez partnered with some of the world's most prolific narcotics traffickers to build a corrupt and brutally violent empire based on the illegal trafficking of tons of cocaine to the US.

A central figure in a more than 18-year-long drug-trafficking scheme, protected for years by machine guns.

Prosecutors uncovered that he was linked with drug traffickers as far back as 2004, long before he became president.

Traffickers paid him millions of dollars in bribes to allow cocaine to be smuggled from Colombia and Venezuela through Honduras on to the US.

In some cases, the drug traffickers associated with Hernández committed violent crimes and murders to quell rival gangs and grow their enterprise.

He shielded drug traffickers armed with machine guns and grenade launchers.

In exchange, he received millions of $$ to fuel his political campaigns.

The notorious drug lord El Chapo gave Hernandez a $1 million bribe in exchange for protecting narcotics routes through Honduras.

The case against Hernandez was overwhelming, and he wasn't alone.

He did it with his brother, a former Honduran congressman now in prison for life.

Arrested in Miami in 2018, Hernández's brother was found guilty of taking part in the smuggling of at least a hundred and eighty-five thousand kilos of cocaine into the US.

Enough to supply five doses to everyone living in America.

Tony Hernandez was aided in his criminal enterprise by his brother Juan Hernández, President of Honduras.

The Hernández brothers had been on the take for more than a decade, moving Colombian cocaine through Honduras and toward the US, sometimes in collaboration with the Sinaloa cartel, El Chapo.

Together, the brothers sold weapons to drug traffickers and tipped off dealers about US efforts to train Honduran pilots for night raids.

Their criminality turned Honduras into one of the principal transshipment points for cocaine in the world and one of the most violent places in the world.

After the brother Tony was arrested in Miami, his former business partner, Sanabria, planned to coöperate with the DEA.

8 days after Tony was convicted, Sanabria was shot and stabbed to death.

6 weeks later, his lawyer was killed.

3 days after that, the warden of the prison was killed, too.

These are the Hernandez brothers.

One used his presidential authority to traffic hundreds of tons of cocaine to the US with the aid of his brother, whom, under his leadership, the government protected.

Trump has now set him free, one of the most prolific narco traffickers.
