Blue Apple plea deals include over five years jail time

The second day of the Blue Apple case began with the validation of two sentence agreements each with a jail term of more than five years.

The Anti-Corruption Prosecutor Aurelio Vásquez, upon his arrival at the court on  Wednesday, August 23.

He told waiting journalists that approximately 15 defendants had reached a sentence agreement and no

person reaches a penalty and collaboration agreement without having full or partial responsibility in the case.

“In fact, you could see that there was a collaboration agreement that the Prosecutor’s Office declined, what means, in a few words there is a tacit acceptance, but we are not going to enter into that situation, because we prefer to enter the debate in court.

The hearing is chaired by the second liquidator judge of Criminal Cases, Baloisa Marquínez.
