2. The hands of justice moved so slowly, it looked as if he had bought his way out of prison.
You may have seen his cocky lawyers being interviewed on tv over the last several years, and you may have been aware of how he got his whole small town to turn out as his loud supporters, even having a festival thrown in his honor, and banners across buildings and festooning cars going down the street.

You may have seen the website they put up to boost his fame in the region, with photos taken of him and his wife and children in their home, looking to prosperous to EVER think of anything like murdering a poor nun who had pledged her life to work on behalf of the poor who as we know have been brutalized, exploited, terrorized, tortured, and murdered in order that people like Moura can be fat and sassy, the masters of their little worlds.

Good people have waited with deep dread for the final judgment on this piece of filth, worried sick he'd simply pay off enough people to be permanently released. It will be necessary to hope they don't find something they can exploit as an irregularity after he goes to the slammer for good.
