Welllll, there seems to be a NEW ATTORNEY GENERAL IN GUATE

This was posted on Guatadopt.com:

Today, Guatemala has a new Attorney General appointed by President Colom. Attorney Baudilio Portillo Merlos takes over the position from Gordillo. Gordillo has filed an appeal to the Constitutional Court to keep the position. I guess we will see if that challenge holds any water!
Since this is connected to the operations of PGN, I will also mention that there have been some rumors that PGN "closed its doors" and everything has been left to the CNA. Today, several of our contacts went to PGN and are confirming that PGN is still working. If there is a problem, our sources usually contact us immediately and we will certainly post it here.

Well, let's hope the new AG will get Sr. Barrios signing away! Maybe he can push OUT all those cases before Gordillo can appeal! Ok, a girl can dream, right?

Ugh! Barrios is still over there?!! Get him out of there!! MY fingers are still crossed for a speedy out. I went through Ana's things, and I have a few dresses, a bunch of shoes, and a bag of winter clothes (up to 24 months) if you want them. Just let me know.
