VOICED : Carteles reclutan emigrantes

Central American migrants face numerous challenges on their journey through Mexico to the U.S. They are often victims of extortion by corrupt police and criminal groups. Additionally, they are vulnerable to drug cartels, such as the powerful Zetas, who impose taxes on those wishing to board the train. Some migrants, like Samuel, resist these pressures, but the alternative is often a life without legal status in the U.S., assuming they can cross the border.
