Documentary: Murder Rates Keep Rising in Venezuela

Last year alone, Caracas had more violent deaths than Baghdad. Ryan Duffy traveled to Venezuela to investigate the country’s crime epidemic. While President Hugo Chavez has raked in billions from Venezuela’s oil boom, the crime rate in Caracas has skyrocketed. The crime epidemic has been so punishing that it could be the reason Hugo Chavez finally topples in the country’s upcoming elections.
