Narco Cult? Inside the Real Santa Muerte Religious Movement - Reasonable Fear Ep. 2

A 4-PART BORDERLAND SPECIAL SERIES:

EPISODE 2: THE CULT OF SANTA MUERTE

On the southern border, there is a legal concept known as “reasonable fear.” If an asylum officer determines that a migrant has a “reasonable fear of persecution or torture” if returned to their home country, then removal procedures can be delayed. And, in the current border crisis, there’s been no greater source of “reasonable fear” cases than the Mexican drug cartels and organized crime. 

In each episode we take a deep dive into the border crisis to find the primary players behind the violence, the scope of these transnational criminal enterprises, and the state of the narco wars.

In this episode, host Vince ‘Rocoo’ Vargas, takes a deep dive into the Santa Muerte religious movement.
