2010 Probate Inventory Form

The second death of José Manuel Saher

In the 60, that serves This government was just a prelude to action, there were those who expressed their dissatisfaction and then went out to dovetail with the group on weapons that were close at hand. There were also those who were walking down the street speaking ill of Betancourt and Leoni, but he loosened his legs when someone suggested going out to overthrow the system that made possible these presidents and their circumstances, and then was signed: this is a talkative bullshit. Is that my wife will give birth to y. .. Not so. Humanity was more important than family.
decision at that time, bravery and heroism performed and is well known Jose Manuel Chema Saher-for-all, the son of the governor of Falcon, a renowned activist for Democratic Action. Against this precedent relative, Chema became a first-line box MIR. We said that today's story begins in those years. Precise: beginning in 1967, on the hill The Bachelor, and the starting point is an armed confrontation between the national army and a fleet of those hosts youth. Soldiers loyal to the government rounded up the dreamers, they were taken a theater of operations. Anecdotal account of the revolution that Chema was tortured, torn apart in life, and then shot.
was war, times were hard, and between men and skirmish skirmish had occasion to die a heroic death. Stem



El Chema Saher left in the world of the living a handful of books (and we imagine what kind of literature), some memories and a child who had put his name, José Manuel. When the father was shot, the boy was 7. Then, the family of fallen guerrilla agreed to save the infant from the spotlight that was underway in the country. A few days of news and distributed execution, the child was placed on a plane that took him nonstop to Havana, Cuba. Outside the country and more confused than an Argentine in a baseball game, the child began to form on earth and in the system that served the father of inspiration. Jump
needed several years, before saying that the young José Manuel internationalist brigades were tied, which means continuing what his father had become a way of life. Before earning his bachelor's obstetrician had already touched to see action and ply their trade in Nicaragua, El Salvador and other Central American countries. Until it came time the return to the motherland. In the early 90 José Manuel stepped on Venezuelan soil, along with his wife begin, then, his years of heroism misunderstood. Or of his naive ignorance of the springs that move today to the Venezuelan reality?
spent several years in Ciudad Bolivar, a little shade, a little to be felt. Until your target exploded in November 1997. The National Guard received reports that a plane had been hijacked by three men. On board she traveled the owner, Boris Valdivieso. When the aircraft landed at a clandestine airstrip in Santa Elena de Uairen, a command of soldiers approached her and proceeded to arrest the kidnappers. One of them proved to be a gentleman identified as Danilo Garcia Noronha. A man whose true identity was José Manuel Saher, Venezuela, 38-year-old obstetrician and son of Chema, that martyr of the Venezuelan left in 60. The other death



Once in prison, he began to experience various forms of martyrdom. You say, someone who had liver to spare to get into such a problem with the law could not wait to throw her flowers. That is their right. But still not lose sight of the situation from now, total, is a human issue, and what we have concentrated on it are fairly circumstances repugnant to be paying attention to how he thought the man.
In subsequent letters to his wife, José Manuel detailing the physical abuse he was subjected to daily in prison. Nothing unusual: kicked in the testicles, kicks, comb through the back and a psychological torment, when the evening became more annoying than usual in separate cell was locked up, stuck the barrel of a fal in the mouth and put to relate stories of green flies that hover, worms that undermine the body, which monitor vultures. To all these, their fellow workers in the plane were released in the second month, while he stayed in jail Vista Hermosa (interesting name for a criminal) past and paying the Cain and Abel, all at the same time. Among the authors of the slaps and threats, Saher mentioned the distinguished Rodriguez and Sutherland agent whom God take care of all evil. Later, in another letter dramatic and decisive, would add the names of flowers and Figuera, all National Guard. While he was there, receiving the respective portions of the same day, his lawyers moved enough to get a bail. A resource encountered several problems, including the fact that the trial judge rejected the sureties allocated for non-compliant. Ie were guarantors but, in the eyes of justice, were not reliable. They were clean, then.
However, after a minimum arrangements, the court finally issued a release slip, which was run on Monday June 8.
But before the June 8 would arrive on the sixth day. Six is \u200b\u200bless than eight, you know. Was visiting day, so his wife, Norka Cujides, went to jail to talk with her husband and bring him some things, as usual. To his surprise, the guards did not allow access to the prison; Saher was suddenly incommunicado, two days before leaving prison, and officials did their best to avoid contact between the spouses. They could not avoid, however, that José Manuel launched from an upper floor a letter, a letter that there are a few copies rolling by the Attorney General's Office and elsewhere. An additional letter, which accounts for the same claims and concerns, accompanying this, the last, the most dramatic. In all these writings the verb invariably note of the old fighters. It is common to find expressions such as "Until victory always," "Tell the people to die with my dignity and my morale high," "Homeland or Death." "Ankylosis or consequence? Perhaps a mixture of both. For purposes of next, that's not important.
In short, many people are holding back a desperate message in which José Manuel Saher asks his wife to establish contact with someone urgently to end the cruelty that have mounted against him, among others, agents Flores and Figuera. They had been talking very often death, had intensified harassment and beatings. Was only two days to go free, but in two days could be many things. Norka Cujides so moved by this letter in his hands, sought his counsel, initiated contacts with the Ministry Público.Exactamente delivered an hour after the message, people were visiting the prison in Vista Hermosa heard two shots. For further explanation why. One of those shot had entered through the left intercostal Saher, the other went through his head from side to side. The official version of events says there was a fight between two gangs for control of the prison. The letter to José Manuel Saher his wife (who, she says, the IMD has been sought at home) tells another story. _________________________
Published 6/14/1998 with the title The second death of José Manuel Saer , including spelling error. After
published this writing, several authoritative voices, including that of the poet Luis Alfonso Well, I sent a letter to the author, that Chema Saher had not fathered children during its short existence. Well it was a personal friend of Saher. More than that: it was who gave his farewell speech to his grave in mass demonstration there in Falcon wrote a biography of him, compiled and published her diary, and still relates to the family of Chema, in Falcon. His testimony, most authorized by the above, collides with that of Douglas commanders Bravo and Guillermo Garcia Ponce, who assert that the deceased at Vista Hermosa itself was the son of the guerrilla.

How To Change My Romanian Driver Licence

Cold Blood

Fourteen years of knowledge, to await the outcome and justice had set for his life. Karla Faye Tucker had that moment of frenzy, those minutes of madness which led to slaughter his former partner and lover of it, and those few minutes were enough for the state, organs of the most powerful nation on earth, decided that his life was a dangerous element disposable, dispensable and malleable.
occurred when she was a young, 24 years, however, were experienced more intensely than any older. The bad day of his crime and sentence ran out of youth, he ended freedom and also began to acabársele life: for one of these cruel circumstances of American law, had to wait all this time for when, at last, the time would come. And the time came suddenly, Feb. 1.
There was a plea for clemency, a human scream that no one listened. A shot in the arm and burning goodbye, goodbye grudges. Simple, swift and nasty. Perhaps as much as the other method, which takes place right here before our eyes but we do not want face him: extrajudicial execution, call it, and often comes seasoned with torture and abuse of all kinds.
and moved, hurts to check one thing: the death of the U.S. caused more wonder that hundreds of deaths that occurred here in Venezuela in 1997. Is it true, is true that pain us for the blood of others? _________________

Hidden Braziliian Waxmovies

To capture the ghost

The accident occurred on December 31, 1997, at 9 pm, on Avenida Casanova Sabana Grande. A small cart, 96-years we will not name the brand or model because we do not want problems Ford-makers came down Calle El Recreo and was about to cross into the Casanova, when suddenly this avenue came a Malibu, brown, year 77, ignored the red light and stuck very hard against the door Ford Festiva left blank. The result is to imagine, while the Malibu was removed just a bit of dried mud of the fender and he shook the cobwebs in the trunk, the other picture was crumbled in the middle of the street, which promontory of corn flakes with no hope of redemption.
is necessary that, before proceeding, readers have very clearly in mind the image of the scene: picture nineties turned wood, with two injured women inside; Malibu whole seventies, but shut down due to damage suffered by the radiator, unhurt but his driver Pedro as baffled as the day Jesus told him what the three denials and the cock crowing , behind the picture of the ladies, a jeep driven by a technical sergeant in the Guard, a friend of them, about a group of onlookers began to swirl, and twenty meters away, an official of the SID to be approached on a motorcycle. That is all. No more wasted space on this page. The scene is served. Hard

catch
Malibu
The driver got out of vehicle scared, and did what any sentient being, and responsible human would do in a situation like that: he looked to the side, looked toward the other and did not see anyone, running without noise crossed the street toward the center Cedíaz commercial. Then intervened Johnny Fernandez, Technical Sergeant of the Guard, as we have said was behind the ladies in a jeep, and told the gentleman stopped Malibu. The man turned, pulled a pistol from the waist to look at infrared and fired two candelazos Fernandez. General commotion, everyone to his lair, women and men loose to scream and faint, Johnny Fernandez to get his gun Deivy regulation and Andrade, an official of SID, also enter into action. The rate of Malibu
continued running, but suddenly noticed that I had about six or eight men running behind him and resumed the flight. Andrade Deivy overtook him with his bike, but the subject turned to dip into their powerful cannon and shot, leaving a gap to recall the officer's motorcycle. But nothing, even though it was December 31 and things were not to run all night long, so a few meters from the next corner he stopped, handed the gun was left handcuffed and accompanied Fernandez and Andrade back to the scene.
Once at the site of the clash, Johnny Fernandez came to the aid of women, two sisters, who respond to the names of Marjorie Josefina Blanco and Blanco Yully Eglée, and were trapped in what remained of the car they were riding. There were three patrols of the Metropolitan, identified as numbers 6240, 6241 and 6340. Then there was a moving episode: the spectators who witnessed the incident tried to attack the driver of the Malibu, and this, to protect themselves, ran straight to the unit number 6240, first encanado that lynched, scat, Deivy Andrade gave the officials of that patrol, one named Jose Camacho and a name Correa assailant's gun, and fired the event and its organizers, for now.
Meanwhile, firefighters were present at the site, with Lt. Gerardo Rojas at the helm, and it was they who rescued Eglée Marjorie and the vehicle to take them to the Polyclinic Santiago de León. A little later, when the women had been moved, Johnny Fernandez asked the officer who commanded the MP group, Sergeant Serrano, what was the name of the detainee. It replied that it was Evaristo José Rodríguez, Venezuelan identity card number 3,378,692, which did not fit quite right, because every time this man spoke an accent was coming out Portuguese went as unnoticed as a top model in a cell retainer Plant. But hey, a man was arrested and plenty to do in the clinic, the husbands of Marjorie and Eglée were notified of the accident and both came, swift to welcome the year in the sadness of a hospital site, on the edge of a flag . Marjorie White was with the evolution of the pelvis, rupture of the bladder, broken ribs, right shoulder and arms, and separation of the jaw, and left the clinic on January 6, A Eglée fared worse, as well of multiple bruises on his body suffered brain injuries due to which was 16 days in coma. Was transferred to the University Clinic where he is still unconscious, is delicate and needs to neurophysiological treatment. The case continues.

New year, new name

We agreed that there is a Evaristo José Rodríguez prisoner by the PM, guardians of order, security and decorum in these corrupted streets of the capital. Pedro Rosal, husband of Marjorie, was the first of January at the Metro Police Station in Quebrada Honda, which was supposed to arrest the guy, and guess what. You guessed it: the so Evaristo was not there, and an agent said Serrano, one sergeant who commanded the patrol, was a report that which the prisoner had escaped. End of the world. Rosal ran to Detachment 62, next to La Previsora, to talk to Serrano. Guess again: there was zero detainees according to Sgt. Only had a couple of key witnesses in the delivery of the aggressor, no less than one National Guard and that DIM. Nothing to do. Serrano was in their cages to a man who injured two women and shot two employees, tasty, and now I had nobody. Evaristo zero, zero infrared gun, zero responsible for the crash.
But it happens to have more contacts Pedro Rosal candida Erendira, a few days so it was easy to find in the PTJ and other bodies some disturbing things. A: aplastacarritos Malibu board (MAW-544) is registered in the name of Alvaro Dos Santos Da Silva, which is clarified the mystery of the Lusitanian accent. Two: this man is the owner of a local pool and billiards located in Villaflor Street two blocks from the accident, and called Sunny, which means that this gentleman has as much money as balls. Three: a local attending this very often assigned to Detachment Metropolitan Previsora \u200b\u200bwho were active in sending to shut some mouths drop there after the Portuguese, no one knows in exchange for what or by what arts. How do you know? Simple: Deivy Andrade said, that official of the DIM that participated in the persecution of the first day. The PM committed the folly of trying to intimidate him and he let go first to Peter Rosal, then the prosecution, the PTJ, the PM and how much authority has requested evidence. Four, as recorded in the offices of the airline TAP-Air Transport-Portuguese, Dos Santos left on January 3, flight 354, for Oporto, back in Portugal.
us go a few days ago, until the first of January. A woman named Fatima Dos Santos was presented in the form of the PTJ of El Rosal to tell a sad story: The Malibu of his brother Alvaro Dos Santos had been stolen. When? In December. And now is when you report? Is that we were looking for ourselves. I parked outside the house and took him away. Where is your brother? In Portugal. It was the beginning of December. Do you charge the car? No, I do not drive. And did not he had parked outside the house? In short, she became a stew of tears and let a man take care of things.
The man in whom the good of Fatima and his delegated the responsibility to seek a settlement by other means was the lawyer for the family. On January 5, this gentleman contacted Pedro Rosal for talks. Both otro se dijeron mutuamente lo que pensaban y se citaron para el día siguiente. Rosal acudió a la cita acompañado por una mujer a quien presentó como una amiga, pero que en realidad era una fiscal del Ministerio Público para que escuchara con atención, por si acaso. Lo que escuchó no fue nada extraordinario: el abogado le ofreció a la familia de las mujeres agraviadas 3 millones de bolívares, cantidad que, en opinión de los familiares de éstas, no alcanza ni siquiera para pagar el algodón y las gasas que necesitan para cubrir sus heridas. Parece que fue la mejor oferta que pudo hacer el abogado, y parece ser la mejor intención que tienen los Dos Santos para borrar las huellas dejadas del 31 de diciembre.
Is this a conclusion? Not yet. Just below material for long: there is someone who should answer for two ladies who are in poor physical condition and should respond to justice, but that someone is outside the country. And that one was ever arrested, held by the PM. "He ran away? Have you escaped?
Intelligence Division of the PM's how to find out. And he will. Of course he will. _____________________

Long Hair Softcore Actress

Forgive him: he was playing the Lamb

José González Alejandro Sayago, 51, was Secretary of Public Works Carabobo state during the administration of Henrique Salas Romer, until he left that office. It is now February 1996, comes the story more or less known: Henrique Salas Feo, just sweep in the regional elections and organized a team similar to the father, with some exceptions. Sayago, the man of public works, was one who stood outside the team's new governor, and hateful of the matter is that the man learned that he had left as the guayabera as appeared in the press, not because anyone has taken the trouble of notifying you.
the same day that newspapers anunciaron los nombres de los nuevos directores y secretarios, Sayago fue a su oficina, metió sus cosas en tres cajas de cartón y una bolsa, le dijo adiós a su gente y se fue a matar el despecho en otros ámbitos, a ocupar un oficio menos ingrato que los forcejeos políticos: se dedicó a ejercer la docencia en el colegio “Pedro Guzmán Gago”, de Valencia. No es que sea muy cómodo tener que optar por el Gago después de salir del Feo, pero bueno, tampoco había para dónde coger. Ya se fue Cindy Crawford; nos queda Lila Morillo.
Sayago rumió su desconcierto durante meses, llamó en varias ocasiones a Salas Römer para que al menos le explicara por qué demonios su hijo le había base on balls given without man in circulation. The candidate as he fought, he suggested a little patience, he explained that some things are inevitable in life and that ultimately was young and as Fernando Henrique very big boy to be getting scolding from dad. Until one day I said okay, Sayago, come see us the first week of December. Do not forget the date: first week of December 1996. Facilitated. Even we are asking them to memorize a specific day.

Death hits first

The former secretary, who lived with his sister and mother in Valencia was not a man accustomed to disappear from your home, or even absent for a few hours without warning to where and with whom would be. Hence the alarm of his family when, on Friday, November 29, 1996, Alejandro José Sayago evening and was not reported as usual. The wait lasted until past the wee hours, Sayago not answer calls on your cell phone. Then his brothers assumed or intuited something: maybe the Alexander Joseph had been in his car (a Ford Festiva) for Chichiriviche, in Falcon state, where he had a beach house which was once in a while on vacation. Not rushed to start the search, however, still missing a few hours to make them pieces alarm patience.
The catalyst needed to launch into action came the 30th of November: one of the calls made to cellular Alexander was finally answered by a woman. Upon hearing the voice of Brother Gonzalez Sayago, the woman who answered gave him the appliance to a man whose voice sounded like someone just rescued from the bottom of a tank full of spirit: "Alexander had an accident in Tucacas later will there. And do not call, fuck no more. " Then a loud, dumb and again the cell anxiety: who had attended the phone and what kind of news was that the accident in Tucacas? Then two brothers of Alexander José Rafael González including Sayago, undertook the journey to Chichiriviche.
arrived at the beach house, knocked on the door, shouted several times, and nobody answered. Iban to leave, but Rafael had a hunch those that cool the blood. Climbed over a wall, forcing a door. They entered the room and there she was, in effect, gagged, bound hand and foot, swollen and with a vague color between purple, green and yellow. Just inside was wearing, the fourth and the whole house was filled with the odor of decomposing bodies.
Until that day, Henrique Salas Romer had always come first in terms of political competition had participated, this time, the race meeting with Alejandro Jose Sayago was won, just days ahead, nothing less than death. And we know that against this lady, my people, no survey is worth. Cart

pa'gozá A

autopsy does not have to be a beautiful document, not to speak on the green plains of my land of flowers and the buzzing of naive bees in spring, but we gave Dr. Tito Zerpa in the medical examiner's Puerto Cabello, with details of the state in which the body was found Gonzalez Sayago, is particularly macabre. Although it seems fitting detail, add to the autopsy was to be made in the cemetery, in the presence of the brothers of the deceased. And that was just the first or second moment of consternation for the family who learned of the death of professor and former secretary of public works will be exhibited on a couple other things later.
In summary, the report anotomopatológico realize hematomas in the occipital region, left temple and right side of the neck, says he introduced a double gagging, woolen fabric with a nylon rope, which he hid the deceased mouth and nostrils, hands tied behind the body, very tight, "with imprisonment of individual wrist in turn tied the muzzle placed in the mouth. " The ankles were also tied with nylon rope and fabric, the face was "high volume, dark green" (...) "The anal orifice open, everted, with sparkling mucosa, forming bubbles." In summary, the autopsy determined the cause of death was asphyxiation by suffocation.
Are we morbid, cruel, unfeeling, unconscious, unaware that a reading Sunday should not contain these types of issues? Yes, we are all of the above. We are bad, bloody, excruciating, almost adecos. What happens is that more will be said of the decision of a court to ensure that no José Alejandro González violence against Sayago. Finally, narrators to bad we are, how we can think ahead one thing you should be more to the final.
few days after the discovery and burial, Rafael González Sayago began to hear reports from a reliable source, there were people who claimed to have seen a neighbor of the Gonzalez family in the late Ford Festiva, and had leaked some very revealing discussions . The entire body of evidence was to fall into the hands of the PTJ, which after investigation, arrests and interrogations about determined that Gonzalez's murderers had been Giovanny Benito Sayago and Reydi Bastelli Mayora Escalona. The father of the first of them was in life a friend of the victim, and Giovanni himself was, in effect, a resident of Gonzales. Stopping Bastelli
and Mayor, along with three other people (to them, by use of objects from an offense) occurred on 12 December, the 29th of that month, Judge Marbelis Rossi issued an arrest warrant them for murder and robbery. In its statement, the two told a story involving the most sympathetic. Take a look: they were walking quietly along a street in Valencia when Gonzalez Sayago called from his car, Hey, mount using. They climbed into the car and went for drinks, but as the place where they were closed, Sayago came up with a better idea: Let's go Chichiriviche. And there are three en route to Chichiriviche.
Once in the beach house, start drinking whiskey, how hard life, brother. Suddenly, Gonzalez Sayago tells the other two sleepy and goes to bed, then they came up with (we're detailing your return, do not forget) that would be a good idea to take the man's car to party by streets of Valencia, and that's what they did. Ah, but before gagged the man that cost him some work out to denounce them, while they enjoyed the shopping in the capital of Carabobo. Such was his statement.

dates, papers, court ...

The April 29, 1997, the second judge of first instance in criminal cases, Nadezka Torrealba, provided freedom and Mayora Bastelli, changing the classification of homicide and robbery, for manslaughter and simple theft. The judge supported his decision to change the rating on some facts on which the law is very strict and specific. One of them: the statements of confession were not involved, because they did not admit to killing Alejandro González José Sayago, simply told what had happened the night of 29 November. On the subject the theft, said the judge who fits the qualification of petty theft, because "there is a seizure of movable property without the consent of the owner with the intention of profiting, not to mediate violence or threat." Therefore, concluded the judge, the defendants committed the crime of simple theft. Judge acknowledges that the boys sold the vehicle of the deceased, and therefore there was an intention to profit.
follows the chronology: In May, the Gonzalez family Sayago and a public prosecutor appealed this reclassification, the Tribunal Superior de Coro leave without appeals. In June, Rafael González Sayago reporting the case to the Judicial Council and to the Attorney General of the Republic. In July, Judge Carlos Alberto accidental La Cruz, Coro, decides that the Sayah Gonzalez appeals and public prosecutor were improper. At this point, missing the investigation of the cover-up involved, so in August, the Third Court sends a notice to one of the cover-up (by mail), to which the ungrateful not responded. September: the Attorney General acting as prosecutor in the case of Nelson Ferrer, fiscal Choir II. October: Judge inhibits Nadezka Torrealba. December 1997: review of records by the National Inspector of Courts of Fiscalía.Continuamos: January 1998: request for the arrest of Omar Perez the accessory that remains to testify. March, April, May, June and months ahead: continuing heavy and endless red tape for a thousand offices, while Giovanny Mayora Reydi Bastelli and tease a great time every time they face in the street with Rafael Gonzalez Sayago. Have reason to laugh: are free. You already know them: those kids neat, nice, big fuckers. Remember the mischief that the "petty theft" of the car to go for a walk in Valencia? Ja, ja, ja! And the stalls of the cell pod, and bruising? And the double gagging? Ja, ja, ja! How many injuries? What face high volume, color dark green, asphyxia by suffocation? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! ____________________

Recognizing Heroes and Tombs

  • were not friends or acquaintances, or even lived in the same place. But certain manifestations of human chaos of our cities were responsible for conducting their lives in similar ways, due to simultaneous tragedies
Alexis Perez has 23 years, the same would now José Ramon Carrillo if a crazy avatar would not have interrupted the youth; Jairo lived until a month ago in the resort La Rosa, in Guatire, José Ramón, Turmero, Aragua, Alexis has always been a restless boy, just as José Ramón . Both gave him the same thing early on: the drug is a strong temptation for some souls lacking the necessary moral armor, nor Alexis and Jose Ramon had in their luggage existential family strong enough to support the so-called of that office as intense as bad as it is survival, with the male, in streets that are concrete jungles. Hector Lavoe dixit. Alexis
had his clashes when adolescent, and before adolescence. So hard and even gave the boy the body within a few years had to be detained in a detoxification center, or being struck explosive knockout because of drug use, and would have 19 when he decided to leave that, and a year when he could say with our heads high that more or less won the battle. Case
José Ramón Carrillo: back in the neighborhood of Turmero Guanarito had earned an image of fighting hunter, warrior irreducible and bad. Everyone knows that to survive in these conditions until beyond age 20 is of particular nuances feat, so do not lose sight detail. Both are operated
same transformation, nobody knows if by chance, persistence or self reflection of their relatives, when they both crossed the imaginary line 20, a sudden shaft of light came down from heaven and landed in those minds tormented. The result of the landing was that the two felt the need to approach God and they did by the most expeditious route, approaching the strongest preachers who cried in their communities. Lamb of God



When that stage was lapsing all hard and semi-wild Alexis Perez, to the despair of a family that was not how to keep it quiet Lane, lived in San Cristóbal. After the urgent passage of the boy by the Lord's hands, decided to move to Guatire, a village there which has neither the weather nor the congestion or the possibilities for study or work-in a word, or one of the advantages de San Cristobal , but it was something fundamental was far from the influence of those useless object that had spoiled the soul to good Alexis. After all the Andean countries say they are docile and hearty. Until then ended up with his mother, a sister and her son, named Eduardo Perez, five years old.
As José Ramón, also came moving city, but ended up being very close to the Turmero of its excesses, and his mother lived in Maracay and there was a stop, not without doing an internship for eight months at home Renacer. Already said he came detoxification therapy because of such drugs. A therapy that was not only physical: if at the point of biblical quotations can be disinfected someone can say that the heart of José Ramón Carrillo was like a commercial for Ace, Carlos Sicilia incorporated. A novel of Saramago
do see that the real Lamb of God is Jesus himself: the guy is going to sacrifice to atone for sins of others. Lambs Alexis Perez ended up being her mother and little Edward, his nephew on 29 August, in the middle of an outburst matched only by those who, years ago, they did rage in the streets of San Cristobal, attacked by stabbing against her confused mother who never knew why he was so much frenzy. The police counted 18 wounds on his body. The child required less cruelty. Only two blows to the skull caps were enough for it to explode with the sound the neighbors heard at the time, unable to identify. Later, they learn: the structure and density inside a human head are identical to those of a golf ball.
A José Ramón came when the headlines that day. In the afternoon he told his mother he was going to visit her sister in the neighborhood Guanarito in Turmero. He assumed the boy would not be old enemies waiting for him, that old wrongs were also deleted due to divine intervention. Not, of course: a José Terán any rival with a memory that worked fine, no major bumps him out in the distance. Approached him, drew his gun, gave him a farewell insult and shot him twice. He was taken to an outpatient center with a bullet in the neck and once in the leg, but nothing could be done. Saving life is more difficult to save the soul.
Alexis was arrested just hours after his double crime, his mental attitude denoted a loss that will be put forward as a mitigating factor or exemption from punishment. He said the child was the Antichrist, and the mother of Alexis, a damn agent who tried to poison him several times.
Once in his cell, he tried to slash his wrists with glass in a window. Failed attempt, the lamb has no right to decide anything about his fate. _________________

Body Fortress Protein Powder



Who ordered the general to come on to be as close to the enemy, with that gorgeous dress, very white and flaming, as if it were the Achilles himself giving up the anger to go into battle? Well that's exactly what General Crespo did, and the result of his daring not long in coming: not even have begun military action with which he intended to settle once and for all the decimated band of El Mocho Hernández, an anonymous Sniper no official position in the history pointed a Winchester rifle and knocked him forever with a projectile of those that hurt just by looking at: a sweet 45-caliber, those who used American pioneers to bring down buffalo at 80 yards away.
The report raised at that time by the physician can read expressions Isaac Capriles coarser than scientific, one of the most impressive: "The bullet entered below the right clavicle and left him a little behind the left hip" - But was that the document that recorded the death of the controversial leader, and it preceded the official transfer from the fatal Carmelera killed in Cojedes state, to Caracas, where he arrived on April 20, 1898.
Before his transfer to the capital, the body of Joaquin Crespo, twice president of Venezuela, should be embalmed in a hurry by a crude process that lasted eight hours, was emptied, cured and treated with the few substances available, cotton stuffing and covered with wax and lime. Under these conditions was buried in the mausoleum built years before, according to the design of Victor Barret Nazarís-General in the South Cemetery.
A century after
At the edge of the third millennium, something far and of those startling events, the site chosen by General Joaquín Crespo as a last room for his remains and those of his family has lost all placidity. Since mid of the 70's, when the Southern General Cemetery arrived in its hundred years of existence, has spoken of the vast overpopulation of these areas, vandalism practices that have been detected there, as the "recycling" graves, some union and resells empty spaces where lie remains neglected by relatives. It has also been discussed and deplored the dismantling of the mausoleums, the theft of the aluminum and other metals, marbles and even the flowers, to be sold to the highest bidder.
But the grim facet of this sort of grave-sweeping army is shooting practice remains of corpses, presumably to conducting Satanic rites, other versions, which have buried in the cemetery with all the natural confirm every time they talk about the deals, selling pieces of bones that some thugs used as an amulet or "against" to ward off bullets.
Last weekend, determined to give a satisfactory answer to the relatives of deceased whose graves have been looted, the Prefecture of the Libertador municipality, the management of the Mayor's Municipal Cemeteries, Urban Security Command and National Guard The PM made a surprise operation whose results were telling: 80 arrests, recovery of several kilos of stolen materials and verification of those macabre practice: many graves had been desecrated and dismantled. The prefect Ramon Flores and cemetery manager, Richard White, a slogan coined to define brutal war is coming: vowed to "kill the vultures, black collar criminals" who prowl at night because the place.
Meanwhile, in the middle of the operation and the statements came to the mausoleum of the general collation Crespo, the most striking and pompous and perhaps also the most neglected, of the entire cemetery, and several officials who were in charge of the operation confirmed the fears, too, had been desecrated, and not now but several weeks ago. Answer which would have left everyone satisfied it not that, just days before the operation, a very well aware dropped by the side of the Forensic Medicine Division of the PTJ a delicate revelation: the corpse is not in general mausoleum.
Where is the general?
The PTJ Central nobody was able to give accurate reports about it or even confirm the news. In the Prefecture of the Libertador municipality, either: the Directorate of Intelligence had been limited to the pursuit and capture of those responsible for an offense is detected, but as far as we knew it was not judged to looters from a tomb in particular. The GN did not seem to be very aware of issues too deep; capture bandits is an everyday thing.
General Cemetery in the South itself, however, there are plenty of unofficial partners: gravediggers themselves, but happy and carefree nature of these workers often paid more to suspicions. Inquire by some rough issues amid the graves can not be pleasant, but very rewarding if you know the information to discriminate. So, we knew that the mausoleum of Joaquin Crespo is one of the most visited on the outside and also inside. For some time the tomb was broken and maimed in body-life, a mass of 1.90 meters tall and about 100 kilograms, the martyr of Carmelera kills. Species difficult to believe because, although a part of the wall and the fence surrounding the monument have been knocked down to build a tomb outside the limit of its perimeter, inside the mausoleum is closed with some chains and padlocks, a curious detail at first, very new, too new for a chapel in a state of neglect. The suspicions are dispelled by checking the dates of the last deceased buried there: Luis Enrique Capriles Crespo, April 4, 1992.
Upstairs in the main hall, may be the resting place of Anne Jacinta Crespo Capriles, just off a staircase leading to the vault that contains or should contain the remains of Joaquín Crespo. Several tracks can be seen between the ladder and the rest of the mosaic that adorns the floor. Should not remain impassable the sacred precincts of the former president? Also shown is a disposable container of soda, perhaps launched from outside. The mere suspicion remain in the background to the direct testimony, hackneyed and old, before the tomb of Joaquín Crespo and his wife have taken place around rituals tenor, and for many years the general's feet were exposed to the weather.
Today, it is absolutely necessary to approach the very intimidating and mysterious staircase mentioned above. For the outside the visitor can approach a door locked with chains, and a new lock, which communicates with the same place. Only, to close one too, collecting a dust-laden air and the sound of insects that requires no more emphasis on exploration.
stroll through Caracas last
Other alternatives to seek the general, to get someone a statement, even a part of the information about his whereabouts, track their living descendants, dig harder in PTJ in Legal Medicine. The latter option-addressed, indeed, throughout the late-crumbled falso acertijo: el general Crespo había sido sacado de su tumba, es verdad, pero no por macabros asaltantes sino por una comisión de la División de Medicina Legal de la PTJ –a cuyo frente se encontraba el propio doctor Jack Castro–, a petición de los familiares y del Instituto del Patrimonio Cultural. Resultaron ser ciertas, de todas formas, algunas de las especies sacadas a la luz de manera risueña y extraoficial: los funcionarios de la Judicial sí encontraron los sellos de la tumba violentados, su tapa rodada de su sitio; el cuerpo, sepultado originalmente con su kepis, un sable y condecoraciones varias, fue hallado cubierto sólo por una especie de tejido de fique; vulgarmente, un saco de papas. Otras especies unconfirmed talk about the mutilation of the little finger of your left hand mummified body of the general will remain under custody of PTJ while making very demanding work of remodeling the magnificent mausoleum. Will they really ensure its integrity when the remodeling and general conclusion has returned from his latest tour de force Caracas? * *

** Two days after the appearance of this column, the Cultural Heritage Institute sent to the editor of Seven Days a letter in which the author was accused of publishing biased information. Among other things, said that "Mr. Duque (...) ignores the rescue work undertaken for months by the Institute of Cultural Heritage", and "is notorious for the recent effort of the municipal authorities and the administration itself Cemetery to improve overall services provided therein, including care and increase their vigilance. " Yes sir. He was so well kept cemetery that Mr. Duke sniffed, wandered, searched and blew bars as he felt like the mausoleum of Crespo, and no one came to ask what the hell was there. Anyway, a year later, to mark the centenary of the death of Crespo, the mausoleum was inaugurated by the then president, Rafael Caldera, and usually installed in luxurious coffin.

Dark In Corner Of Eye

The charity useless

's truck route UD-4 - Metro Zoo made its usual route as normal, would be 10:45 am Feb. 9. It would, among other passengers, Lisette Acosta (20 years, student, hyperactive girl.) When they reached the destination stop, the passengers saw a group of police Metropolitan requisitioned to users of the units that were ahead. When it was the turn of the van where he was Lisette, a young man who had entered the vehicle in the area Vuelvan Caras told the driver not you dare stand: still driving, and he said in a tone so gruesome that the driver not I left in no doubt: he had to continue driving. But the PM became aware of the issue and ordered to stop, the unit stopped, the police prepared to enter the van and everyone sweating, swallowing thick.
One of the PM came, armed, and seemed to identify someone: Get out of there, he told the boy that the strict order. More was learned that the young man came to storm a stock in the sector Vuelvan Caras, and the Portuguese-time whistle had tipped off the authorities. Although the young man meekly obeyed the order, the PM kept the gun in threatening position, only that the person to whom it was not the robber pointed but Lisett. There were a few seconds of tension, the boy was left holding the hands and began to go out, when, in view of the barrel was pointed at Lisett police, the survival instinct of the girl was telling the police: No shoot.
What is more treacherous thing? Is the bad intention or the inability to control themselves in extreme situations? Good questionnaire to do it to one agent, who happened to be the distinguished John Da Silva, who, perhaps disturbed by the voice of the young and their own nerves of gelatin, did the opposite of what it asked: a bang and the bullet went crazy , nonstop, to the left eye Lisett Acosta.

I ask, I demand, I ask

The girl left the truck with his face covered in blood, crying for help. The bullet had pierced his eye, and they say that it hurts. the police there behaved in a manner to which we are already used to it, turned away and left the scene. Fortunately, a young couple passing by in his car Lisett picked up and moved to the clinic Loire, where they arrived in about 20 minutes. The emergency care, we made minimal treatment and then placed in the hands of Dr. Vincenzo Perez, who is a friend of the father of Lisette. And who is the father of Lisett? Well-known sports journalist, specializing in baseball, Humberto Acosta. The operation was performed the girl was a success, in the sense that she is alive, but he lost the eye completely. Terrible thing for a beautiful young woman must inevitably go through the world giving the face. Days after the incident
relatives went to the command Lisett general of the PM to discuss possible compensation for damages and expenses that had to pounce on the family. The Acosta family incomes are not high enough to support a millionaire trancazo insurance does not cover injuries caused by firearms. The attitude of General Francisco Belisario Landis was quite honorable. He explained that there is no clause in the rules of the PM to talk of compensation to civilians, but, in an effort to somehow alleviate the injury of the young woman offered hire for office, and thus provide insurance law officials, the formula ran into a thousand red tape and general Belisarius had to be incompetent to resolve the issue.
later met with the governor of the Federal District, Abdon Vivas Teran, who sent them this offer: Go to the Lottery Caracas, to give them aid. Did not notice the nice officer that Acosta was not asking for a few cents with which to buy a few cans of sardines, but an amount that would help with the two operations that have been made Lisett, the operation comes and require multidisciplinary treatment to lead a dignified life. Given the lack
officer, the family has decided to raise the case at the hands of the Attorney General's Office, and continue to borrow, receive loans from family and friends not to fall into the machinery to good Abdon suggested: make the tail of recogelatas and destitute to beg a couple of thousand Bs, back in Caracas Lottery. Ninth inning



These things Humberto Acosta had been thinking about a few weeks ago, a truck route Caricuao "The Silence, when suddenly he noticed an unusual agitation around the truck, at the height of the Paradise: a group of wheelers, The Pantanal, he beckoned the driver to stop. Arrúguense, stockings, here comes the authority.
The driver obeyed, two policemen entered the unit, the other is located outside, in strategic positions. The order which directed the actions inside the van left no doubt about what was happening: Gentlemen passengers, bow your heads. And you, coñoetumadre, get her hands up. Acosta did what he was told and analyzed the situation: we are in the ninth inning, the team is winning by one run but the rivals have three men on base with one out, our pitcher is hitting Rafael Caldera and Bob Abreu. Any false pitch and lost the match.
happens rarely in baseball for life, but this time it happened: the man was removed from the truck without shooting. Caldera struck out Abreu and saved the game for now. ________________
