Over 660 cases since 2008, and the numbers are climbing fast, with more reductions this year than all of last. Victims are outraged, feeling punished twice: once by the crime, again by the system’s delays. A father whose daughter was murdered described shock when his killer’s sentence was cut by ten years—eight for the trial’s length, two more for an appeal. The Court of Audit has warned for years that the justice system is clogged, blaming poor coordination between police, prosecutors, and courts. The Minister of Justice admits the system is broken and acknowledges the pain inflicted on victims, but admits fixing it is a tough, unsolved challenge.
