This case seems to be taking an awfully long time to reach a conclusion. When will we know if our dear leader gets his just desserts?

It is obvious this situation is requiring dogged determination and perseverance. Holding the Justice System's feet to the fire and actually getting the law applied is what is taking so long. I bet a lot of fiscals, etc. would rather give this a pass but the more that is known about this guy, the better off we all will be knowing that the system is willing/forced to be accountable.

The big case where the attorney general and his anti-corruption office (DPCA) joined ADECA against Canoa and Canoa's puppet sindico who served before him, Eddy Morfe, was postponed till July 5. At the previous hearing, Eddy Morfe claimed to be sick and unable to attend. On that occasion the attorney general sent 3 of the prosecutors from the anti-corruption office in Santo Domingo. These were joined by two prosecutors from the Puerto Plata office plus the lawyer retained by ADECA. When the attorney general puts that much commitment into a case against a miscreant director of an ayuntamiento distrital, the writing is on the wall for el Caudillo de Cabarete, despite the support he has received from corrupt Puerto Plata politicians.

In the case mentioned at the top of the thread, the victim happens to be the mother of the woman who is the vice-sindica of Cabarete, whose only offical role is to wait patiently until Canoa is removed and she replaces him.
