What exactly is the hierarchy of the police/military in the DR?
Ie; Is it National Police, AMET, Tourist Police, Local etc and Military having concurrent jurisdiction or?
I have a friend who is what in the US would be an O-9 or Lt. General who seems impervious to civilian law and it confuses me, are the military not covered by civilian laws?
there also seems to be completely separate organizations such as the Marine Police (Black and white camo uniforms) etc. Maybe I need an explanation of the different military functions to fully understand this
I recall reading some history, the 1965 occupation by the US specifically and it seem there is a "special" group that Wessin led that was not under command of National Authority or?
thanks
