Santo Domingo. - The Government officially received on August 31 the list of military and Police officers allegedly involved in drug trafficking, a case which the authorities have yet to refer to, except the Government’s antinarcotics adviser, Marino Vinicio Castillo, who recently admitted the existence of the names, newspaper El Dia reports.

It said information from the United States proves that “that list is well known by the authorities,” while an ex- president Antinarcotics Agency had affirmed that “doctor Castillo knows who they are, and he, as the Presidential adviser, must provide the names,” adding that, “I am going to break the silence.”

U.S. Embassy Commercial attaché Christopher Lambert recently said that there will be investigations, a response which confirmed Castillo’s version, although indirectly.

NOTHING will happen. Presidential pardons are being made.

Just like the retard that said "he was ill the day he was arrested and wants a judge to dismiss his confession" when he tried to send weapons to the DR.

These 'adults' will look bewildered and ask why this is happening to them, saying they did not think anything was wrong with selling drugs.

Inbred entitled mentality will be their defense.

If LF really cared about this, he could have done something a long time ago. He didn't need a list.

It is quite obvious some of the names on the list. Really sad is the head of national police is directly linked to drug dealers and the only person above him does nothing to save face or protect his citizens. LF has failed miserably in the battle against corruption. If he intended to fix the corruption problems he wouldn't have allowed this or the countless other incidents directly related to his administration to happen and then not say a word or do anything about it. In a civilized country the rest of the government would demand justice or impeach the president. These corrupt officials which are also quite obvious would be diligently prosecuted and humiliated in the media. Their money and assets would be taken from them and they would be a poor citizen in a jail cell for a long time.

These are probably the true heroes that did not go along with the official CIA drug trafficking schemes.
