Tercer detenido por asesinato de carabinera fue indultado por Piñera

So, I stumbled across an interesting article about a carabinera who was murdered and how the third person responsible was actually pardoned by former Chilean President, Sebastián Piñera. Crazy, right?

Basically, a young officer named Norma Vásquez was shot and killed during a bank robbery in 2018. It was a really tragic event that hit the country hard, but justice seemed to be served as three individuals were arrested and charged with her murder. However, it’s recently come to light that one of the culprits, who is now a fugitive, was actually pardoned by Piñera for a previous crime.

I think this is incredibly alarming and just shows how broken the justice system can be at times. The fact that someone who had already committed a crime was let off the hook only to go on and commit something even worse is just mind-boggling to me. It’s also important to note that Piñera has been criticized in the past for his leniency towards convicted criminals.

This is definitely a topic that needs to be discussed more, especially with the rise of crime rates in Chile. It’s important to hold those in power accountable for their actions and demand justice for those who have been wronged. Let’s hope that justice is truly served for Norma Vásquez and her family.
