This R&D provides resources on El Salvador’s crime problem.  The Central American nation had an average of 120 homicides per 100,000 population last year, making it the murder capital of the Americas.  The country is struggling to control criminals and gangs, as the problem has sent refugees to the United States and other parts of Latin America.
