They are the same, criminals and judges. They are poisonous heads of the same Hydra.<\/p>\n<p>Now we have a new example:<\/p>\n<p>As Zapatistas, we have realized that the intellectual authors of the murder of the compa\u00f1ero and teacher Galeano have returned, fat and happy, to their homes in the village of La Realidad. They were supposedly being held prisoner for the murder of our teacher and compa\u00f1ero. We already know that they have been declared innocent of this crime by the same people who financed and supported them: the federal and Chiapas state governments. On August 12 of this year, the self-proclaimed \u201cjudge\u201d Victor Manuel Zepeda L\u00f3pez, of the criminal court in Comit\u00e1n de Dom\u00ednguez, Chiapas, declared that Mr. Carmelino Rodr\u00edguez Jim\u00e9nez and Mr. Javier L\u00f3pez Rodr\u00edguez are innocent, despite that fact that they and their accomplices in the CIOAC-Hist\u00f3rica know that they are guilty of organizing the crime. They aren\u2019t the only ones responsible, but they are guilty.<\/p>\n<p>They were secretly brought back to La Realidad. They were told not to be out and about much and to be discreet, but the pridefulness of those who know they have impunity with regard to justice from above means that they have loose tongues. Thus they are declaring, to anyone who will listen, that they weren\u2019t prisoners at all, but rather staying at a house where they received plentiful attention and congratulations from the state government of Manuel Velasco and the leaders of the CIOAC-Hist\u00f3rica for the murder of the teacher Galeano.
