Is Daniel Hernandez Colombia's most corrupt prosecutor in history?
by Adriaan Alsema July 28, 2020
Prosecutor Andres Hernandez must be adored by Colombias mafia and corrupt politicians for arresting policemen, losing evidence, allegedly wiretapping at will and not solving one corruption case.
Hernandez has refused to comply with his legal obligation to show his tax returns, according to independent news website La Nueva Prensa, and probably for a good reason.
The prosecutor has been implicated in so many corruption scandals that any misstep could land him in court.
Despite the fact Hernandez has been linked to almost every corruption scandal in Colombia since 2015, the justice system has barely lifted a finger.
An investigation order, and a flurry of testimonies and press reports over the mysterious prosecutor might merit a criminal investigation into the apparent go-to guy to cover up corruption.
. . .
Hes been so careful to not leave digital footprints that even his registry in the government database of public officials is almost entirely empty.
The only public information that is available indicates Hernandez began his first and only job at the Prosecutor Generals Office on February 12, 2004.
Finding a court sentence as the result of Hernandezs work has been impossible. Finding more than one plea agreement too. Hernandez appears to prefer operating in the darkness.
. . .
While interviewing Uribes fixer, mafia lawyer Diego Cadena, the prosecutor claimed Uribe was not the mastermind, but a victim of his fixer, blatantly ignoring Supreme Court evidence indicating the opposite.
As if that wasnt enough, Hernandez ignored the fact that Cadena was facing obstruction of justice charges and had already fled the country before.
The prosecutor baffled the country and granted the gangstattorney house arrest instead of throwing him in jail.
