Cannot believe he has been allowed to live an untroubled life since he went wild against civilian Guatemalans, raped, and murdered them.

More from the article:

...
Rosales lived for a time in the military-dominated neighborhood of Colonia Lourdes, according to records of a driver's license he renewed on Aug. 11, 2008. The leader of the unit, former Col. Roberto Aníbal Rivera Martínez, also lived in Colonia Lourdes. Investigators who tried to arrest Rivera last year discovered that his house was equipped with an escape tunnel.

ProPublica has learned that in recent years, Rosales lived in another house in a nearby upscale neighborhood, Colonia Hacienda Real. The presence of military families in Colonia Hacienda Real is considerably smaller than in Colonia Lourdes, investigators say.

Despite the fact that massacre charges against him had been public for years, Rosales did not keep a low profile, investigators say. In fact, he served as president of a neighborhood association, according to Guatemalan prosecutor Sarah Romero. Rosales was elected to lead a committee of eight to 10 leaders representing about 200 homes, investigators say.

Known as "Colonel Adán," Rosales participated in activities such as discussions about building a church and meeting with representatives of city government, investigators said.

It would be an act of respect to the survivors if they dealt with this matter as soon as possible IMMEDIATELY after all this time. They know he's still knocking around there.
No time like the present now. He's older, hopefully he'll be slow enough to find if it's not asking too much!

Thank you, Nambe.
