Arturo Zaldívar is a political corpse. Maybe she doesn’t want to realize it and continues fighting to avoid the free fall in which he finds himself. The complaints for him factious use of the Power of attorney when He was president of the Supreme Court They continue to appear, in courts and in the media, with first and last name, cornering and revealing his other side, that of a coward, alleging that there is nothing in the public complaints of abuse of power that link him, thus separating themselves from Carlos Alpizar, its less circumspect operator in his noted outrages. Let Alpízar sink so that he can make the flight of the Phoenix, it seems to be his decision.
In a matter of a few weeks, the image of Zaldivar collapse. The opening of a investigation at the Judicial Council based on a 32-page anonymous complaint that details the modus operandi to “violate the autonomy and independence” of the Power of attorneythrough pressure, threats and reprisals against judges and magistrates “with the intention of satisfying personal and third-party interests”, in which the former legal advisor to the Presidency, Julio Scherer, who bossed him around from the National Palace, and implicitly the beneficiary, were explicitly exposed. political of the manipulation carried out by the former minister, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
Scherer, who continues to do business protected by his closeness to Sheinbaum and links with businessmen that he asks him to do, has remained silent in the face of the accusations, which do not seem to have caused a dent in the candidate’s war room, nor reduced the legal work in the security area, through two offices associated with it that do the pencil work for Omar García Harfuch. Zaldívar, who went from histrionics to hysteria in his desire to demonstrate that he could be more radical than the radicals, is sunk.
In his public defense he has pointed out to the President of the Court, Norma Piña, as the author of the attacks against her, which are intended, she argues, to harm Sheinbaum. He clings to the candidate but there is no reference in the anonymous complaint, nor in the public complaints that magistrates are beginning to make against Zaldívar and her operators, that involve her. Yes, the objective is clear so that it is not the former minister who prepares the reform of the Judiciary, but it is not because of what the bill may contain, but rather the former minister, about whom there are dozens of complaints of all kinds in the Court , be responsible.
The war against him began with the leak of the anonymous complaint, whose verisimilitude took on the face of truth as magistrates took a step forward to ratify with their face, name and surname in courts and media, that what was expressed in that document, it was true. Zaldívar did not understand the messages and last week, through a report by N+ Focus, Televisa’s investigative unit, the network’s star news program released a recording made by Judge Alberto Roldán in Alpízar’s office, where He suggests how to resolve an amparo and secretly threatens him if he does not do what the former minister told him to do.
The protection was to exonerate Frida Martínez, former secretary general of the Federal Police, accused of fraud for two thousand 500 million, which is part of the way in which the Presidency used Zaldívar to achieve López Obrador’s objectives or, as in In this case, comply with their political agreements. Martínez is – or was, at least – the partner of the brother of the former Secretary of the Interior, Miguel Osorio Chong, with whom she has been linked since 2004 in Hidalgo. Upon arriving in Bucareli, Martínez, who was completely trusted by her, placed her in the resource management areas in various security areas, protected by the secrecy that gave them the argument that they were a matter of national security.
There are billions of unquantified pesos from Osorio Chong’s time in the Interior, from where he sought the presidential candidacy, whose investigations concluded in second-level officials, although key ones such as Martínez, but who was not protected by the impunity agreement that López agreed upon Obrador and former president Enrique Peña Nieto, where Scherer was involved, who was operating what the president needed with Zaldívar.
Televisa, anticipated the head of investigations at N+, Omar Sánchez de Tagle, had one more audio that was going to be broadcast. And he doesn’t seem to be the only one. Officials of the Judiciary Council assure that more than 10 audios have been received by this administration, surveillance and disciplinary body of the Judiciary and that they have a large amount of evidence that proves irregularities and illegalities by Zaldívar and his operators. That is to say, the former minister’s slope is quite long.
Zaldívar has said that they attack him to hit Sheinbaum. It is not like that, but one thing is certain. To the extent that the candidate keeps him on her team and in charge of the Judiciary reform project, the negatives will add up. Zaldívar is gangrene that is beginning to spread through his leg. He is totally discredited and delegitimized not only for the assignment that López Obrador sent him to do with Sheinbaum, but for any position.
His collaborator is like a zombie and runs the risk of the Judiciary Council finding him responsible for the crimes he is accused of and disqualifying him. There is even the possibility that the Council will visit the Attorney General’s Office to investigate him for alleged criminal offenses. López Obrador had an asset in Zaldívar and thought he would be an asset for Sheinbaum, as legal advisor and eventually Secretary of the Interior. Today is a very heavy burden, which should not continue to be carried, especially given the imminent date of the third presidential debate. Better to cut their losses and have a correct political solution than to carry the burden of a political corpse.
