===Police Corruption===
The murder of two university students in October 2011 at the hands of the police uncovered a wave of drug-related corruption in Honduras that infects virtually all layers of law and order in Honduras. The murder of the university students provoked the reaction of various sectors demanding the purge of the Police, among them the Human Rights Commissioner, Ramón Custodio, and the rector of the National Autonomous University, Julieta Castellanos, mother of one of the murdered students.

According to the ''Miami Herald'', the Honduran National Police were closely linked to the drug cartels, which, in turn, have the protection of politicians, judges and prosecutors. According to Honduran police, military and human rights sources, the crimes committed by the Honduran authorities range from murder to extortion and carjacking.

Even drug operations are often run by the police, with the complicity of their bosses, who drive around in luxury cars and live beyond their means. Arms stores of the police and the armed forces are stolen and the supplies go to Colombia.

Faced with this problem, President Lobo insisted that "I never imagined the problem that existed in the Police", "I was confident that a minister who spent almost four years with (Ricardo) Maduro and two years" in his government "could solve problem," said Lobo, alluding to former Security Minister Óscar Álvarez, whom he dismissed on September 10, 2011, due to strong pressure from police headquarters.

Before he was ousted by President Lobo, Óscar Álvarez had publicly accused the police of being "air traffic controllers" for drug planes, and announced the need to purge the police.

The seriousness of the problem led President Lobo and his security minister (Pompeyo Bonilla) to meet in Miami with senior officials from the National Security Council and the United States Department of State to discuss the matter. . In addition to North American assistance, experts from Colombia and Chile, following a separate evaluation of the Honduran National Police, concluded that a purge is needed police.
