Thank you for being here.

I'll be quick.

My question is about the judicial system prior to 2015 and before the third term of the president's election. Was there any accountability? I know we've talked a lot about impunity within your testimony, but prior to 2015 were there checks and balances with the judicial system? Were individuals held accountable? Can you elaborate on that fairly quickly?
