Argentine President is
again mired in
Corruption Allegations
By Jerry Brewer
President Cristina Fernandez of
Argentina continues to lose her
credibility on a world stage,
much beyond the recent events
in the alleged suicide of
Argentine prosecutor Alberto
Nisman on January 18.
In Nismans death, he was found
collapsed against the bathroom
door of his apartment with a
bullet wound in his head a 22caliber handgun nearby. A
security camera in the service
elevator of his apartment
building was not working, and
there were no cameras in its
stairwell. This just hours before
he was to testify before
Argentinas National Congress
regarding a criminal complaint
he filed against President
Fernandez and her inner circle.
Nisman, an Argentine prosecutor
since 2005, had been adamantly
seeking justice in the 1994
bombing of the AMIA Jewish
Community Center in Buenos
