Trial in Laredo botched (6)
I believe the answer is:
ordeal
'trial' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'laredo botched' is the wordplay.
'botched' indicates anagramming the letters.
'laredo' anagrammed gives 'ORDEAL'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for ordeal that I've seen before include "Suffering - trial" , "Torment" , "Tribulation" , "A tough and testing time" , "Torture" .)
