Press reports highlight the case of Police Lieutenant Idelfonso Jiménez, formerly of the security force of the Monte Plata jail. He was fired by the Executive Branch for accepting a Toyota Camry from Florián Féliz, who was in jail on drug trafficking charges. Reportedly, the lieutenant would travel to Haiti where he would meet with a sorcerer and recruit her services so that Féliz would not be found guilty by the judge studying his case. Despite the services of the Haitian sorcerer, Féliz today serves a 20 year sentence in jail.
