The human body is fascinating. When he believes he is right, more than usual, or seriously emphasizes an issue, or feels attacked and needs to explain why, Álvaro García Ortiz raises his right eyebrow in an ostentatious way (ostentatious is a word in rehabilitation after the dark years to which the ostentatious by Jesús Gil). They are not symmetrical eyebrows: the right one has its own personality, it has followed its own path since she was little. There is a language of hers that is curious to decipher during the interrogation of García Ortiz by her defenders (she refused to respond to the accusations of “disloyalty” – the latter was whispered in her eyebrow). In the end, in reality, you never know which eyebrow disobeys, whether one raises itself or the other that doesn’t feel like raising. There’s a lot of that in this process. About what Xacobe Casas once wrote: “The birds thought they were flying, but it was the sky that was falling.”
There is, after all, a historical relationship between progressivism and the eyebrow, even if half of those who supported Zapatero in 2004 by raising their eyebrow with their finger have shaved their eyebrow or amputated their finger.
Álvaro García Ortiz, Attorney General of the State, testifies after the testimony of the UCO agents. In its report, the Guardia Civil published, as a clue to the State Attorney General’s leak, a conversation between the right-hand man of the FGE, Diego Villafañe, and the chief provincial prosecutor of Madrid, Pilar Rodríguez. Villafañe, according to the UCO, hints that there are big plans for her in the context of an alleged conspiracy at the Prosecutor’s Office with professional recognition for all those involved. “Take care of yourself because I already told you that we will need you a lot,” he tells her. She replies, “Ayyy…, what are you thinking?” And Villafañe says: “It’s okay.” It’s the typical conversation a patient is taught to know if he is obsessed with sex or power. The UCO chose power. However, García Ortiz’s defense showed the whole conversation, and it is a little frustrating: “On Monday I went to another ophthalmologist. He gave me another type of laser, which penetrates more and is more specific for detachment. More painful. What alerts me is that I was at Laservisión a couple of months ago and he didn’t see those new tears,” says the prosecutor. And Villafañe: “Oysters, I didn’t know about the new tears. Come on and take care of yourself, we need you at your best!!!! A big kiss.” “The laser doesn’t stop you from working!” he says. “Haha. How are you! Take care of yourself because I already told you that we will need you a lot.”
Pay attention to the number of “we need you maximum” exclamation points. One eyebrow I know tells those signs and you have to go look for it in a taxi. Chances are, if a work colleague tells you, after a complicated eye operation, that he needs you badly, you’ll think he wants to stage a coup. But that this amputated conversation served as an indication of a conspiracy paradoxically describes another indication, this time more deplorable. When asked why they had removed the context of the conversation, the officers replied that they had done so to protect the witness’ privacy. And also protect Laservión’s reputation a little.
The collection of declarations will end this Wednesday. The trial isn’t over yet and won’t be when the verdict comes. Trials that begin with a clear sentence in everyone’s head never end, especially if there is political affection. The UCO believes, like Miguel Ángel Rodríguez, that everything that happens in the State Attorney General’s Office is “dominated” by the public prosecutor himself. This is a generous and imprudent argument, especially when the prosecution attempted to steal information that the State Attorney’s Office also had possession of the leaked email. This means that it is likely that the talkative neighbor on the eighth floor, the one who always talks to you about seasonal fruit in the elevator, had the document from González Amador’s lawyer two months before it reached the attorney general. And not open. That’s why the only conclusion of this trial is that this document could have reached people who don’t even have an email address, people who could have received it with a crowbar. The fact that the FGE was prosecuted is because someone has to sit there, we will not let a lady from Ourense sit to whom we have to show our faces.
García Ortiz ends his statement with a red-faced phrase that, appropriately, endorses “someone I don’t know and who told me this on the way here.” “The truth cannot be filtered, it must be defended”. It sounds like a phrase from Fabio Capello. Perhaps Capello was leaving the Maiorca pastry shop in via Génova talking on the phone to Sacchi and the public prosecutor thought he was saying it to him. In the end. The truth obviously leaks out, and continually. The FGE did not raise his eyebrows at the time, perhaps because he himself was not convinced. You don’t cut your hair on the eve of the party, nor do you change the subject by going to court. Who knows, MAR with the wig didn’t say it.
