capable of protecting him as the honest legal people try to get this shocking mess to trial!

I went to try to find another photo of Judge Alejo Ramos Padilla:



Found it with this article, which is amazing, from earlier this year:

(google translation)

Who is Alejo Ramos Padilla, the judge of the case against Stornelli and D'Alessio

The magistrate was threatened with a weapon by the repressor Miguel Etchecolatz, who called him at his house to harass him. Profile of the judge who uncovered the "cloaca" of Comodoro Py.

MARCH 21, 2019

When last Friday the Government announced that it was going to seek the dismissal of federal judge Alejo Ramos Padilla , one of the inmates of the Ezeiza prison must have received the news with special joy: Miguel Osvaldo Etchecolatz . The anger is old.

The former Director of Investigations of the Buenos Aires Police during the dictatorship was the first genocide to sit on the bench of the defendants after the annulment of the laws of Due Obedience and Final Point. In 2006, the complaints that accused him of kidnappings, torture and disappearances in the province of Buenos Aires asked the Federal Oral Court 1 of La Plata to revoke the domiciliary. Why? Because he had a firearm.

One of the plaintiffs' lawyers was Ramos Padilla, who represented María Isabel "Chicha" Chorobik de Mariani , the founder of Abuelas. In addition to a lawyer, he himself had had contact with the weapon and had struggled with the repressor to prevent him from "making a target" on his father, Judge Juan Ramos Padilla.

The Ramos Padilla had gone to the apartment in which Etchecolatz lived in 2001 to seize him because they had won a trial for slander against Alfredo Bravo, a survivor of the dictatorship and leader of the Permanent Assembly for Human Rights (APDH), in 1998 and the Police had never paid. The cross between the genocide and the master was immortalized in a program by Mariano Grondona in 1997, in which Etchecolatz denied having tortured him , but, with total cynicism, said that they had made a treatment that had allowed him to heal his flat feet and plantar callus . The other slanders had arisen from his book The Other Bell of Nevermore.

This judge has the a criminally insane mob out after him, intent upon completely subverting justice.

Politics there looks incredibly violent! (It may easily be as violent here, it's quite possible. We're just in the dark, of course.)

Looks as if these people are fairly brazen about things.

Ramos Padilla certainly has proven he is enormously courageous to have not fled the country, already. Clearly Macri's buddies are more than happy to do whatever they think is needed, until they are stopped, to keep that facist system going as long as there is ANY more profit to be made, before giving themselves all immunity, and withdrawing.

Thank you for the incredible news. Things look as if they've just gotten more ominous. Hoping so much good might prevail, before the election.
