Pinochet's wife and son charged

A judge has charged the wife and son of former Chilean President Augusto Pinochet as accomplices in a multi-million dollar tax fraud case.
Lucia Pinochet was detained at the military hospital in Santiago, where she has been receiving treatment.

The couple's youngest son, Marco Antonio Pinochet, is being held at a police station in the capital.

The case relates to offshore accounts where Gen Pinochet and his family allegedly hid more than $13m (£7m).

Investigating judge Sergio Munoz ordered Mrs Pinochet's arrest, having interviewed her last month for the second time in a year.
"Nobody in Chile is above the law," said Osvaldo Puccio, the government secretary general.

1. I wonder when the old man's next "stroke" will be
That seems to be the cycle anytime he has a court date or something.

2. Right! It also worked out for him that way in England. Poor man.
It looks as if his poor, dear wife suffers from some the same terrifying ailments, as well!



They've had a wild ride on the backs of the Chilean tortured and murdered "leftists."

The hatred and death they set in motion September 11, 1973 was still raging in the 1980's. I just ran across this reference again yesterday, and it still horrifies me:
The various communications received by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights reporting that on the morning of July 2, 1986, during a protest demonstration called by groups in opposition to the Government of Chile, the youths, Rodrigo Rojas DeNegri and Carmen Gloria Quintana Arancibia, were arrested in a neighborhood of Santiago by an army patrol, searched, beaten, held within proximity of inflammable material, sprinkled with fuel, set on fire, and taken to a place on the outskirts of the city where they were unable to receive medical care, and there they were abandoned.



2. The subsequent death of Rodrigo Rojas DeNegri on July 6, 1986, as a result of burns received.

Here's a before and after of the one who lived, Gloria Quintana Arancibia.

4. Apparently amoral venaliity is a familial trait.
Even by marriage. We see that in the dynasty now holding state power in the US. No surprise that it is true of those who have served them (their predecessors) elsewhere.
