Se comparan la violencia y los homicidios relacionados con las drogas de 2006 a 2013 y se analiza cómo muchos migrantes centroamericanos nunca llegaron a la frontera norte de México, sin haber sido detenidos ni deportados por la autoridad mexicana. Se buscó información en organismos de gobierno, autónomos, civiles y comisiones regionales de las Naciones Unidas. Se realizó un análisis formal de datos mediante el método spss. Se muestra que las detenciones estadounidenses disminuyeron en este periodo y se incrementaron nuevamente en la siguiente administración presidencial. Simultáneamente, cientos de migrantes desaparecieron en México, aunque no se cuenta con datos exactos debido a la clandestinidad que rodea a la criminalidad. Los migrantes fueron vistos como moneda de cambio a quienes se extorsiona o trafica ilícitamente. Pese a ello los centroamericanos continúan emigrando masivamente.
