Guatemala prosecutor not pro-corruption, just anti-anti-corruption

Faced with a little pickle on how to defend himself against credible accusations of rampant corruption as well as interfering with corruption investigations, Guatemalan prosecutor Rafael Curruchiche thought about it a bit and came up with a real outside-the-box strategy: The UN anti-corruption mission led by Colombia’s attorney general and a former defense minister was the real corruption, therefore he could get a court to issue an arrest warrant for the two. Boss move.

Curruchiche did just that, accusing Bogota’s AG Luz Adriana Camargo Garzon and former Defense Minister Ivan Velasquez with being part of “a criminal structure led by” the former head of the UN’s anti-corruption mission, CICIG, which operated in Guatemala from 2007 to 2019, when then-President Jimmy Morales decided to not renew its mandate after his family got implicated in the kind of stuff James Comer would promise to Fox News viewers and then not deliver, the AP reports.

Specifically Curruchiche alleges that Camargo and Velasquez did the actual corruption when they cut a deal with Brazilian construction giant Odebrecht to get them to spill on a series of bribes paid to Guatemalan officials. And yeah this article’s all over the place but that’s the fucking MAGA-est thing ever, lol. “No, you guys are the corrupt ones because you turned the screws on legitimate businessmen who were just trying to cut red tape. You’re corrupt and you’re going to Guatemalan jail as soon as you surrender yourselves to arrest here in Tegucigalpa. Oh, well well well, so you’re not going to come and defend yourselves in court? Guess that means you’re guilty. Pussies.”
