The International Percecution of Pinochet

Pinochet Entangled in A Web of Inquires appeared today in the New York Times. Pinochet is under investigation from a broad variety of sources and a number of coutries are involved in his percecution. Three persecution teams in three different countries are currently persuing evidence. The US Justice Department is also involved. The international nature of this investigation shows that international actors are involved in Latin America. The United States and European countries (notably England and Spain) believe that international aid is necessary to secure a successful percecution of Pinochet. The distrust of Latin America countries and government is clear.
