The Chief Justice of the Dominican Supreme Court fired a broadside at the Justice Department bureaucracy yesterday. He warned the Attorney General that if the Justice Department continued making public statements about opinions expressed by judges, he would start doing the same about prosecutors and their performance. Jorge Subero Isa said that the Attorney General has a "fairly large file" of issues submitted by the Supreme Court concerning prosecutors' activities that have had no repercussions. Subero told reporters from Hoy and other media that he had promised President Fernandez that he would handle issues concerning the Justice Department directly with Radhames Jimenez Pena, the AG. Subero also reminded the reporters, "you have never seen any statements from the Supreme Court directed at the Attorney General". He went as far as to accuse the Justice Department of failing in its attempts to convict public officials accused of corruption.
