Disgraced by narco ties, Colombia's VP sues crime analyst instead of stepping down
by Adriaan Alsema July 29, 2020
Disgraced by revelations of drug trafficking ties, Colombia’s vice-president filed and dropped criminal charges against a crime analyst after announcing the same with the maker of an online series.
Vice-President Marta Lucia Ramirez filed criminal charges against crime analyst Jeremy McDermott for revealing evidence her husband does business with a senior drug trafficker, the Committee to Protect Journalists said Wednesday.
The VP previously said she would file criminal charges against attorney and journalist Daniel Mendoza, whose online series Matarife revealed she put civilians in danger when she was defense minister and at war with now-disarmed FARC guerrillas.
Revelations by independent news website La Nueva Prensa that the VP’s brother is a convicted heroin trafficker further increased calls on Ramirez to resign, but to no avail.
