- THE OTHER VERDICT
-
- Much was made of the dismissal by a Los Angeles federal judge
- of charges against Dr. Humberto Alvarez Machain in the 1985
- torture-murder of D.E.A. agent Enrique Camarena. But the
- prosecution did not come away completely empty-handed. Alvarez's
- co-defendant, Ruben Zuno Arce, a Mexican businessman and
- brother-in-law of former Mexican President Luis Echeverria, was
- convicted in the same court. According to the jury, Zuno helped
- plan Camarena's kidnapping and was present while he was
- tortured. He could receive life.
