A teenager’s escape from hell in Honduras (another illegal alien)
nypost ^ | November 23, 2014 | By Isabel Vincent

When 17-year-old Katherine Silva Lopez tried to flee gang members who robbed her daily on her way to school in Honduras, they stabbed her in the arm and threatened to kill her.

In San Pedro Sula, one of the world’s most violent cities, it was no idle threat. Were 1,200 ­homicides last year in the city of 437,000, where gangs prey on teens.

“They force you to kill, to steal, to sell drugs, to do prostitution,” ­Lopez told The Post in Spanish outside federal court in lower Manhattan. “I was really scared.”

Lopez’s parents decided she’d be safer with relatives in Brooklyn.

Her 70-year-old grandmother, who had also been targeted by gangs, had made the treacherous, 1,400-mile journey to the United States last November.

At dawn on May 29, 2014, Lopez set out on the first of five buses. Her 25-year-old brother, Hector, went along for protection, depositing her at the US-Mexico border ­after four days and nights of teeth-rattling rides. She squeezed onto an inflatable raft with about 20 others to cross the Rio Grande.

On the other side, Lopez was immediately arrested by US Border Patrol agents. Forced to give up ­everything they were carrying, including shoelaces and baby clothes, the illegal immigrants were packed into vans and transported to a Texas detention center. Dressed in jeans and a long-sleeved shirt, Lopez waited more than a week before she was allowed to bathe or take a change of clothes.

“People were sick, babies were crying, kids had diarrhea, lice and were vomiting on the floor, and there was nowhere to lie down if you wanted to sleep,” said Lopez, adding that the babies’ mothers were as young as 16 and, like her, had entered as unaccompanied minors. “Some people started sleeping in the bathrooms, which were a disaster.”

So she admits committing crimes in her home country. Deport her. Now.

only 50% of what she says might be true, They are coached what to say.

I sympathize but I would still keep her out. Just seal the southern border and they won’t even try to come here. Word will get out and maybe they will fix their crazy countries....or not. Eeees not my problem. If we didn’t have millions like her coming I would not mind her so much.

Soon she will be pregnant and getting all kinds of bennies. How does her immigration help America? It only helps her

I think she’ll find plenty of drug-smuggling Latino gang members here, too. Obama has been importing them—as Clinton did earlier. And Bush just stood there and smiled.

Another illegal alien SOB story. At his rate, it won’t be long before every person on the planet will find an excuse to live here. These people need to man up and fix their own countries. Maybe create a few laws and elect governments to whom they can file grievances. Kind of like Americans did here in America.

Instead of going to Muzzie hellholes like Afghanistan, we should be going into Meh-Hee+Co and Central American and cleaning that garbage up, so they won’t have to leave to find greener pastures.

Remember the good old days of illegal immigration when it was just Mexicans saying we have  a right to live in California, Arizona, Texas because you stole it from us? She is from that pit called Honduras and all we ever did there was grow bananas

Dumb question, but where is the wound on her arm?

You know, the wound she said she got from a gang in her home country?

Oh never mind, I wouldn't have believed her story anyway, but next time humor me and at least TRY to make up a credible story.
