Reply #9: A few other interesting facts about Lori Berenson

[Downtown Hound]

At her second trial, which was widely criticized by many human rights organizations as being grossly unfair and prejudiced against her, her "judge" was revealed to be one of Vladimir Montesinos' boys. Montesinos is the now imprisoned former spymaster of Peru and graduate of the School of the Americas, and is said to have committed countless human rights violations.

There is a video of Montesinos discussing Lori's upcoming trial, in which he basically admitted that she would be found guilty and sentenced to 20 years. Her guilt was predetermined, and she never had a fair day in court.

I can't say I know for sure what Lori Berenson was up to in Peru. What I can say for certain is that she never had a fair trial to be able to prove her innocence.
