Nigeria’s deal to drop Cheney charges called illegal | Raw Story
Moral of the story? If you're rich enough, you' can pay your way out of a jail cell with ease. The corrupt, avaricious, chickenhawk bastard is going to get off scot-free.
Lawyers and media pundits in Nigeria are accusing the government of acting illegally by agreeing to settle criminal bribery charges against Dick Cheney out of court.
Nigeria charged Cheney and applied for an Interpol arrest warrant earlier this month in connection with a $180-million bribery case. Cheney's former employer, Halliburton, reportedly agreed to pay $35 million to see the charges dropped.
