    Family? Nothing solid on that yet (i.e. no solid sentence, I think there are ongoing yet) honestly stinks a lot of lawfare, certain tribunlas are controlled “from the backdoor” by the opposition, as the same PP said once…

    Addendum: the opposition parties are well served of corruption also

      Maybe, but for me, where there is smoke there is fire. I mean, other politicians do not get implicated, even remotely, if they’re not totally corrupt. Maybe Sanchez’s wife and brother did was nothingburger, but the accusations won’t be entertained if there is actually no credibility to it. They say that the most effective propaganda is not peddling falsehoods, but taking a grain of truth and making a mountain out of it.

        There is a long tradition of open processes against people of parties opposite to this opposition that controls judges that ended up in nothing, so I would not be surprised that the cases against their family end up in nothing, specially due to the great creativeness of the accusations to start these processes and some deliberate actions to just enlarge them with new weird stuff just to maintain the image of accusation, I think in those cases the principle of innocent until proven the opposite stands out a lot…

          Of course it’s innocent until proven guilty. But a lot of politicians walk the grey line to get a wiggle room to not be put in jail. Although if a politician and his/her cronies are truly honest, then there would be no reason to be implicated even remotely. Think of any popular politicians and tell me if those have been embroiled in a serious scandal.
