I'm happy

Von Wernich, a Catholic priest who worked in the secret detention camps in Argentina, was just convicted to life in prison for a number of kidnappings, tortures and murders. AFAIK, this is the first time a priest is convicted of such acts in Latin America - though there have been Rwandan priests convicted of crimes against humanity and genocide.

So I'm thrilled - the process of justice has been slow but the wheels are finally turning.

In other happy news Mike and I won a number of items at the silent auction for Girls Inc. we had at the Women of Taste event. I got a gift certificate for the Lawrence Hall of Science, a barrel wine tasting and four bottles of wine, a photography session and something else I can't remember. We also won a gift certificate to La Note in the raffle. All very cool, and the money goes to a good cause.
