Eight years after being ousted in the middle of a scandal, the former mayor of a small town in Salta Province is attempting an ambitious political comeback.
Juan Rosario Mazzone, the former mayor of El Bordo – a town located in Güemes department, Salta – is seeking to once again become town mayor following his ousting from the post in 2015.
Mazzone lost his post after photos showing him half-naked and posing with minors were leaked to the media. The two minors, then aged 15 and 17, also appeared to be partially undressed in the photos.
Now, after serving a three-year sentence for the “corruption of minors,” Mazzone has decided to run for office once again.
