Argentine Investigator from "Dirty War" Gets Life

Miguel Osvaldo Etchecolatz, 77,Another person associated with "El Proceso" in Argentina during the so-called "Dirty War" was convicted this week. He was convicted for involvement for the disappearance of six people. You can read the details from Yahoo News. I don't mean to sound harsh, but I can't say I sympathize with Etchecolatz when he comments, "They are going to convict me...They have no shame condemning an old, ailing man." This is the second case of person being convicted in Argentina after impunity laws from the 1980s were anulled in 2005.

You are right. I'm being too diplomatic.
