From the RTVE website, a shot of the 95 ex-politicians and municipal employees accused of bribery, extorsion, malfeasance, forgery and all other manner of corruption in the management of construction licences in Marbella over the first years of the decade and whose case is finally coming to trial - the charges and evidence occupying 200,000 pages. Readers might note the minimal eye contact between vermin finding themselves adjacent to one another. Every last one of them tried to escape by ratting out the others. And they all know that.
To the immediate left of the policemen in the front row is Juan Antonio Roca, presumed mastermind of the entire episode, who seems to have managed to go from bankruptcy in the mid-90's to having a net worth of about 2 billion euros when he was arrested in 2006.
For a nice slide show of yesterday's courthouse entrance, go here. The beginning and end of the video are pretty good, too.
