摘要

The justice system in Mexico is on its knees. The innocent are imprisoned and criminals go free. The poor go to jail. The rich don't. Drug-trafficking, and the violence it brings, may attract most international attention, but the flaws in the organisation of Mexico's courts and police affect far more people than the "narcos" ever do. The first step in fixing a problem is to admit you have one. "Our legal justice system has collapsed," says Patricia Villanueva, chief prosecutor in the southern state of Oaxaca. "It is obsolete," agrees Manuel Moreno Rivas, head of the state's judicial police, responsible for investigating crimes. That is why Oaxaca, along with half a dozen or so of Mexico's 32 states, is seeking to revolutionise its judicial system. Drawing on successful programmes in Chile and Costa Rica, it aims to move from a Napoleonic inquisitorial system, where prosecutors take most of the decisions and judges act largely as rubber stamps, toward a more British- or American-style adversarial system, in which oral arguments before a judge in court play a key role.
