A woman weeps as she waits outside the morgue for the remains of her loved one, a victim of the Comayagua deadly prison fire, to be identified, in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Sunday Feb. 19, 2012. As many as 350 inmates perished in the fire that swept through the prison north of Tegucigalpa late Tuesday. More than half the inmates were still awaiting trial. Many of those who died had been locked up for petty crimes: stealing a wallet, robbing a truck. Some had never been charged. (AP Photo/Esteban Felix)AP - A doctor in Honduras says another victim of the worst prison fire in a century has died, bringing the death toll to 359.
