As on other occasions, <strong>the reduction of sentences is done in application of the \"only yes is yes\" law<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2023\/08\/25\/avalancha-de-criticas-contra-irene-montero-por-presumir-de-un-ano-de-su-ley-sueltavioladores\/\">a law that has benefited more than 1,100 sexual offenders<\/a> and that has served to release more than a hundred. This is <strong>a law promoted by the Ministry of Equality, in the hands of Podemos<\/strong>, the partners of Pedro S\u00e1nchez.<\/p>\n<p>Well then: after the news broke, <strong>Pablo Echenique, former deputy of Podemos<\/strong> and former spokesperson for the parliamentary group of that far-left party, <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.ph\/3b3ia#selection-431.4-431.21\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">has branded the Thursdays of the Supreme Court as \"Rubiales with a toga\"<\/a> <strong>and has accused them of that sentence reduction<\/strong> , saying that <em>\"they have gone back to benefiting rapists\"<\/em>. This statement is especially infamous, because in every democratic country <strong>judges are not the ones who make the laws, but simply apply them<\/strong> on a case-by-case basis.<\/p>\n<p><big>Those who make the laws are not the judges, but the legislators<\/big><\/p>\n<p>In a democratic country, <strong>those who make the laws are the legislators<\/strong>, both the executive branch and the legislative branch, which is in charge of approving them. <strong>And who were the legislators who approved that law?<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2022\/11\/17\/los-205-culpables-de-la-rebaja-de-penas-a-violadores-en-espana-asi-voto-cada-partido\/\">There were a total of 205 deputies, including 33 from Podemos<\/a>. Anyone who wants to check it out only has to go to the page of the parliamentary dossier of that law (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.congreso.es\/es\/web\/guest\/busqueda-de-iniciativas?p_p_id=iniciativas&p_p_lifecycle=0&p_p_state=normal&p_p_mode=view&_iniciativas_mode=mostrarDetalle&_iniciativas_legislatura=XIV&_iniciativas_id=121\/000062\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">clicking here<\/a>) and download the PDF (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.congreso.es\/webpublica\/opendata\/votaciones\/Leg14\/Sesion196\/20220825\/Votacion008\/VOT_20230302181455.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">clicking here<\/a>) of the last plenary vote on August 25, 2022, with which said law was approved by 205 votes in favor, 141 against and 3 abstentions.<\/p>\n<p><big>Echenique was one of the 205 deputies who supported this reduction of sentences<\/big><\/p>\n<p>On page 4 of the PDF are the votes in favor issued by the <em>Grupo Parlamentario Confederal de Unidas Podemos-En Com\u00fa Podem-Galicia en Com\u00fan<\/em>. <strong>The seventh deputy that appears is this: \"Echenique Robba, Pablo\"<\/strong>. He is the then spokesman for the parliamentary group of Podemos, the same one that this morning wrote the tweet to which I referred above, blaming the judges. Thus, <strong>if these violators see their sentences reduced, it is because Echenique and 204 other deputies supported that reduction<\/strong>, a reduction that judges are obliged to apply, because otherwise they would commit a crime of prevarication.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Echenique is not only a toxic person, who proves to have no scruples and who dedicates himself to spreading hoaxes<\/strong> and insulting in the most base way all those who do not think like him, but <strong>also he is a cynic who blames the judges for a penal reduction that came into force because he and 204 other deputies supported it<\/strong>, an obscene display of cynicism, typical of someone who shows not even an iota of shame. <strong>I hope the judges take legal action against him<\/strong>. It's enough that this wretch is dedicated to throwing garbage at others to hide what he did to lower the sentences for rapists in Spain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of all the deputies who have passed through the Congress of Deputies, there is one who takes his displays of cynicism to grotesque extremes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[10398],"tags":[8443,7841,11425,11462],"class_list":["post-52858","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spain","tag-pablo-echenique","tag-podemos","tag-rape","tag-spain"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52858"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52858"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52858\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52858"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52858"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52858"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
