Bolivian village justice

#4  Glen, that's the problem with mob justice. Sometimes, all it takes is a rumor that the accused is guilty - and the rumor may be started by anyone, even the actual perpetrator.

We've seen examples in Muslim countries where someone is burned alive or beaten to death because somebody thought they saw that person doing something "blasphemous".

#2  I'll wager the crime rate in and around Colquechaca plunges sharply in the coming days.
