Thousands of supporters of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador stand at Mexico City's Zocalo square during a rally against Felipe Calderon, December 1, 2006. Calderon took over as Mexico's president on Friday and pleaded for an end to months of unrest over his narrow election win, but a huge brawl erupted in Congress where leftist opponents vowed to block him from taking the formal oath of office.

12. Brad Will's Alleged Killers Released from Jail

Brad Will's Alleged Killers Released from Jail
By Sarah Ferguson | December 1, 2006



Protesting Friday in New York at the Mexican Mission to the U.N.

The two Oaxacan town officials accused of gunning down Indymedia journalist Brad Will were released from prison today after a state judge claimed there was a "fading of evidence" against them.

The Mexico City daily Milenio reports that local town councillor Abel Santiago Zárate and his chief of patrol, Orlando Manuel Aguilar Coello were both set free after the judge concluded that the two "could not be guilty" because they were too far away to have delivered the fatal shots.

Will was killed on October 27 while filming a street skirmish between protesters and town officials in the Santa Lucia del Camino, on the outskirts of the state capital in Oaxaca.

The judge's ruling was based on new and conflicting evidence presented by state prosecutors, who recently tried to pin Will's murder on the demonstrators he was filming.

According to the judge, the state's autopsy and ballistic reports found that Will was shot by a 9 mm gun at a distance of "less than 10 meters away." (The state's estimate of the distance keeps changing: last week there were reports of 1 to 3 meters and 2 to 4 meters).
