Juan Orlando Hernandez

The Honduran attorney general announced Monday night that he had issued an international arrest warrant for the country’s former president, Juan Orlando Hernández, who was recently pardoned by President Donald Trump and released from prison in the United States.

The wife of former Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernández says he has been released from prison following a pardon from President Donald Trump.

Former Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernández may be bound for the U.S. to face charges he aided drug gangs that force Hondurans to flee to the U.S.

U.S. prosecutors have repeatedly implicated Juan Orlando Hernández as a co-conspirator during his brother's 2019 drug trafficking trial, alleging that his political rise was fueled by drug profits.

The Senate Foreign Relations chairman says evidence implicating Juan Orlando Hernández in narco-trafficking means he "endangered U.S. security."

COMMENTARY On the eve of the Summit for Democracy, calling leaders like Nicolás Maduro "president" feels like complicity in their dark charade.

Leftist Xiomara Castro is routing her conservative rival in the vote tally for Sunday's election. Can she improve Hondurans' lives — and stem migration to the U.S.?

Hondurans go to the polls Sunday, and many voters say they're undecided who they'll vote for. But one thing they do know is that they'll be casting a vote to punish the current National Party.
