Having briefly visited Solola 3 1/2 years after this massacre occurred,
this little notice captured my attention.
Would it be too late to extradite Ronald Reagan to a court in Spain so
that he could then be tried for crimes of genocide?

Skeletons of 38 people found at massacre site
GUATEMALA CITY -- Twenty-one complete skeletons and fragments of 17
other bodies, presumably killed by the army in 1981, were found in
common graves in the northwestern province of Solola, the
nongovernmental Mutual Support Group reported Thursday.
The organization, which represents 45,000 relatives of political
prisoners who disappeared during Guatemala's civil war, said the graves
had been opened between May 22 and Tuesday of this week in the Pajujil
community in Solola.
According to the group, the army took over the community in August 1981,
capturing 46 people, including women and girls, who were first raped and
then burned alive.
