The Pinochet trial: It's about time

There is a great deal of controversy surrounding the Pinochet extradition trial, and rightly so: No one can convincingly deny that there were human rights violations during his 17-year rule in Chile. About 3,000 people, mostly of leftist inclinations, disappeared without a trace. To this day, no one has been able to account for them. Pinochet seems guilty of crimes against humanity. Now, 84 years old and severely ill, he is finally called to be held accountable for his previous actions.
