Criminal lawyers have called on the District Attorney for the National District, Alejandro Moscoso Segarra, to identify the jurists he says are creating companies that only serve to launder money from drug trafficking. Reactions from several lawyers in Santo Domingo called Moscoso Segarra “irresponsible, unfortunate, disrespectful and unethical” in interviews with El Caribe reporters. Four lawyers, Marino Elsevif, Jose Rafael Ariza, Manuel Ramirez and Ingrid Hidalgo, said that the District Attorney is not there to complain but to act, and his comments are damaging to the profession. They all agreed that the DA has the power to act and should do so without making such generalizations.
