Hide the cameras: Spanish court springs Baltasar Garzon
If you know what's good for you, you won't get between a camera or an open microphone, and BalthasarFrom TFA: The celebrated Spanish human rights investigator Baltasar Garzón escaped a second conviction for abuse of his powers on Monday when the supreme court declared him not guilty in a case involving his investigation of crimes committed under the Franco dictatorship. The decision came too late to save Garzón's career as an investigating magistrate as the the supreme court had already disbarred him in a separate case for wiretapping conversations between defence lawyers and their clients in a corruption investigation involving the prime minister, Mariano Rajoy's People's party.
