Juez condena a dos años hombre que asesinó a su pareja con siete meses de embarazo
“Se burlaron en la cara de uno, la justicia no sirve en este país, se vendieron los jueces”, eran las palabras de la madre de la víctima tras el fallo de lo que calificó como una sentencia comprada.

So the issue is not with the puppet but with the puppeteer!
What are the specific plans for ensuring that this is a good or essential activity? Can we at least lay out some rudimentary accomplishments which we could use to measure success and establish as to whether or not this initiative is self-justified.
Coludn't our money best be spent to improve cultural offerings in DR from within, sort of to assure that tourists have more positive first-hand experiences and lure them away from "All Inclusive Resorts"?
you guys are too much (lol)!!!
can anyone possible answer me?....
Clinic raid: "just a visit"
National Police chief Rafael Guillermo Guzman Fermin says that the spectacle that took place on Friday night at a private clinic in Santo Domingo was just "a visit to a patient" who happens to be a friend of his and of the head of the National Drug Control Department (DNCD) Rolando Rosado Mateo, and that their visits with their heavily-armed escorts was pure coincidence.
Diario Libre learned that the patient in question is the daughter of the former chief of the Police secret service. Guzman Fermin denied that the incident, during which several police agents were seen covering the hallways of the private medical center and even entering some rooms was part of the search for the fugitive Sobeida Feliz Morel.
continued:
On the night of the operation, the watchman, who refused to give his name, told reporters that the DNCD and National Police officers who accompanied Guzman Fermin and Rosado Mateo had arrived without notice, and entered by jumping the gate and throwing him to the ground. A police source said they did so after repeatedly calling out at the door and not getting any answer. The source said that one officer jumped the gate and found the watchman behind the building. But the watchman kept to his version that "they arrived at nearly 10 o'clock unannounced. I was put face down on the ground and they put a foot on my back and they did not ask me for anyone," he told the press.
Several employees of a restaurant opposite the clinic confirmed that the DNCD and police agents jumped over the front wall in order to get into the medical center.
continued;
Sobeida Feliz has been sought since 3 November when she missed her assigned registration date at the prosecutor's office as required by her bail agreement.
