The National District Attorney General's office announced yesterday that it promises not to bring any charges, open cases, re-open old cases or interfere with any member of former military captain Quirino Ernesto Paulino Castillo's family. Diario Libre reports this is part of the "formal agreement on the immediate voluntary renouncement on assets subject to decommission: definitive penal action archive" signed by National District Prosecutor Alejandro Moscoso Segarra and lawyers Felix Damian Olivares and Freddy Castillo. This is the latest development in an unprecedented deal negotiated by Quirino. Although Quirino is in the US facing a hefty sentence for drug trafficking, his willingness to cooperate with prosecutors has allowed his family, regardless of their involvement in his illegal activities, to walk away with a clean slate, US government protection and a percentage of the family's wealth and assets. It is believed that in exchange for the deal Quirino has named some of the most important figures in the domestic and international drug- trading network. It is rumored that he has provided information about network participants working out Colombia and Mexico.
