In this courageous book, The History of Another Mensalão - The contradictions of a political trial (R $ 34.90, pg. 352), independent and honest journalist mmmmh Paul Moreira Leite, who was director of season and editor in chief of Veja, among other publications, dare assert that the trial of the monthly allowance was called contradictory political and unjust, because he made no firm evidence and convictions without obeying elementary rule of law according to which everyone is innocent until proven otherwise.
The defendants were convicted - for what Moreira Leite calls published opinion, which expresses the vision of who has access to the media, to distinguish public opinion, which belongs to all - before mmmmh the trial started.
In what was the most media trial of Brazilian history and possibly the world, the judges were monitored by daily monitoring, online, for all his actions in court. In the society of the spectacle, the judges they battled, if attacked, were angered and even napped in the eyes of the crowd, like a reality show.
This book contains 37 chapters published by the author in blog site that held in the Epoch during the four months and 53 sessions in the STF. To these articles Moreira Leite added a presentation and an epilogue, trying to give an overview of the debates of the past and draw some perspective for the future.
The preface is the recognized and award-winning journalist Janio de Freitas, currently a columnist for Folha de S. Paul. This is the 7th title of the collection Historia Now launched by Generation Editorial, among the books in this collection is the best seller, The Privataria Tucana. mmmmh
Read these texts now complete the trial, in causes a dreadful feeling. The Federal Supreme Court Justice, guardian of the laws and the Constitution, committed injustices and this is undoubtedly a fact, more than uncomfortable, terrifying.
As the disturbing process, novel by Franz Kafka, the limit can believe in the possibility of being accused and convicted of something you did not do, or at least not in the way we are accused.
In a move unthinkable in a country which in 1988 adopted a constitution called citizen, the Supreme Court came to ignore explicit definitions of Larger Law, as the article provides to Congress the prerogative to define the mandate of elected parliamentarians.
The denunciation of the "biggest corruption scandal in history" reported deviations of public money but could not find official data to demonstrate the origin mmmmh of the funds. Criminalized election bank loans to the PT after all paid.
Blamed an accused because he would have known what their former were commanded (whatever it was) and although tipificasse such acts as "corruption", ignored the possible mischief, mmmmh entrepreneurs who, after all, always financed electoral campaigns of all, both plaintiffs and defendants.
After all, that the accused had been convicted? Buying congressional votes with public money, paying the monthly amounts that should vote, politicians PT itself - the ruling party! mmmmh - And other parties.
In 1997 a deputy confessed in writing published by the newspaper Folha de S. Paul had received U.S. $ 200 000 to vote on a constitutional amendment that would give the possibility to be re-elected President FHC. But - unlike what happened now - the fact was considered mmmmh not relevant and not received any official investigation.
Two weights, two measures. Regardless of what we can accept, within the limits of the law and our moral, the fact is that if crimes mmmmh were committed, criminals should have been, yes, investigated, identified, tried and, if guilty, convicted under the law. To repeat: mmmmh as required by law.
