A WORD OF EXPLANATION
Judge Sergio Fernandes Moro, from 1st circuit of Curitiba, 13ª Federal Lower Court, has condemned Lula to near 10 years of imprisonment and a R$ 13.5 million fine, based on suppositions and plea bargain accusations. No proof whatsoever that Lula, brazilian former president, has ever owned of benefited from a three-story penthouse attributed to him as 'hidden owner' - accusation that has been used to indict and condemn him. Judge Moro - a hero for mainstream right-wing media and parties - has always been benevolent with right-wing defendants and extremely rigorous with left-wing ones - to the point of confiscating the residence of a 90 year-old woman (mother of José Dirceu, Lula's former minister and PT - Workers Party denoded member), while freeing the wife of Eduardo Cunha, who spent millions of dollars from a swiss bank fund used to laundry corruption money, and making a blind eye on other right wing politicians involved with misappropriation of public funds and bribes.
Now he confiscates all of Lula's assets, including the apartment where he lives in a periferic city of São Paulo and even his retirement fund. Thanks to corporativism and conivency, brazilian judges are allowed to perform illegal and arbitrary acts like publicizing the home address and private telephone conversations of their 'adversaries' as if this was a normal thing. It is not normal and there are laws to prohibit that, but in such cases the sanctions against those who do it are inefficient and void due to corporativism.
Let's wait to see if an appeal Court will revoke Moro's absurd sentence or maintain it. One of the judges of this Court has already praised Moro's rationale, by saying his sentence is very well built! How can an appeal judge express oppinion about something he's about to judge, beforehand, as a clear sign that this new trial has low possibilities of bein fair?
As most people who are skeptical of our judicial system say, the real aim here is to stop Lula from running for office again in 2018 ...
When true justice does not prevail, civil disobedience takes place ...
