Costa Rica: Abogados y Jueces Corruptos
En Español Sharks, Drugs, Lies, and Corruption in Costa Rica Commentary by Captain Paul Watson For years, the tiny nation of Costa Rica has enjoyed the fruits of the myth that it is some sort of ecological paradise. The truth is that Costa Rica is one of the most corrupt and ecologically destructive nations in Latin America. Corruption in Costa Rica Not So Swiss After All A series of high-profile corruption scandals rocked Costa Rica last October, implicating three ex-presidents and forcing one of them to resign from his post of Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS). The first scandal surfaced September 4 when investigative journalists alleged former President Rafael Ángel Calderón (1990-1994) had accepted about half a million dollars in illegal commissions from a medical supply company. A second scandal broke just two weeks later, exposing the French telecommunication company Alcatel's payment of a $2.4 million prize to the government in exchange for a lucrative contract to build cellular phone lines. Miguel Ángel Rodríguez (served as President of Costa Rica from 1998 to 2002), Rosa Elena Gamboa (a coordinating superior court judge in the province of Limón,) and corrupt lawyers Rolando Angulo Gatjens, Juan Diego Bustamante, Ramón Gabriel Díaz, Julio González and Bernardino Chavarría had allegedly accepted a large piece of the prize, and José Maria Figueres (1994-1998) confessed to accepting over $900,000 in separate commissions from Alcatel. | The Corrupt President of Costa Rica On 27 April 2011 he was sentenced to 5 years in prison for corruption  President of Costa Rica In office 8 May 1998 - 8 May 2002 |
