I thought he had been convicted and sentenced. How can he now be cleared? http://narcosphere.narconews.com/notebook/al-giordano/2009/07/honduras-coup-general-was-charged-1993-auto-theft-ring
BTW, your link to the story is not working.
Not sure why the link isn't working since if I paste the URL into my browser it works fine.

The case was frozen without the court reaching a final decision in the case. In this case, after 10+ years they reopened it to clear him. Its just the coup cleaning up after itself.
Hi, can you locate the La Prensa source for this mentioned in the article.
No, but I did try. Perhaps it didn't make it into the electronic edition.
