Corzo breaks silence, says Government is wrong
One week after scandal broke with Congress’ approval of the judicial reform, Senate President Juan Manuel Corzo weighed in on the issue and said the Government is wrong to call extraordinary sessions in an effort to sink the reform. As president of the Senate, Corzo explained, he could have kept the reform from being enacted.
The senator insists it was Justice Minister, Juan Carlos Esguerra, who encouraged the congressmen to approve the reform despite the “monkey wrenches” which had indeed already been identified at the time. As far as the so-called “monkey wrenches”, Corzo said he wasn’t behind any of the proposals that emerged from any of the committees and that he was actually the one who requested the Justice Minister’s presence in that meeting.

all Juan Carlos Es-guerra is more guerra! guerra from all of us dissatisfied tax payers who believed in them as our representatives to safeguard our public treasury….We employed them to work for us…not to work against us! Shame on them….That gay guy Gaviria had the effrontery to say that he signed the Judicial reform without reading it first…If he gets paid 40 times more than regular citizens do and he still CAN’T read…send him to elementary school…How are we supposed to get out of the mess we are in?…where are the real leaders who can really lead us?…Shame on corrupt congressman who want to do less and get more and more pay and fringe benefits. Alberteacher from Bilingual Colombia thinks so. What about you?
