Suriname massacre case drags on

Pres. Desi Bouterse
The military trial of Suriname's President Desi Bouterse drags on. A final decision is not expected until the second half of 2018. The charges grow out of a 1982 massacre of 15 opponents of the regime at Fort Zeelandia. Details here.

Definitely what Pres. Abraham Lincoln would have called "a case of the slows."
