AMLO's Hot Take on Justice, Media, and Maize
Authorities spotlighted judges exhibiting favoritism towards criminals. Intentional homicide rates saw a decrease of 19.9% in July. The President emphasized non-intervention in elections. Discussions about transgenic corn with the U.S. are ongoing, focusing on potential health implications.
In the latest morning conference led by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) from the National Palace, several pressing issues were discussed, highlighting the administration's commitment to justice, security, and public welfare:
Judiciary Scrutiny: An intense spotlight was cast on numerous judges for alleged misconduct. Authorities exposed several cases where judges are believed to have favored criminals. For instance, Eduardo Alberto Osorio Rosado has now been formally accused of crimes against the administration of justice. Others, like Judges José Luis Hernández Hernández and Daniel Ramírez Peña, have reportedly shown bias in cases involving the illicit exploitation of national assets and illegal fuel theft, respectively. Further emphasis was laid on the broader issues of poor performance within the Judiciary, particularly concerning delays in proceedings involving large taxpayers.
