I read the whole story, and Thompson's message is:
We had only good intentions, we still don't know what went wrong. If not for Unicef's meddling, we would've been fine.
Much more realistic would be:
We had no idea what we were doing in the first place, went by whatever we were told by...
A Haitian judge has notified American Embassy officials that all charges against nine of 10 Baptists who were arrested in Haiti in late January for trying to bus children out of that country to the Dominican Republic have been dropped,.....

Lambada - I haven't found anything about her, but the one mention in a 2007 State Dept paper. Which lead me to think originally, when Puello became so eager to "spill the beans" to anyone who would listen, that he simply made it up (like hundreds of other stories), so others would run with it...
Truck - here's a note I made about the SINNoticias story:
The interview took place while judge Saint-Vil was questioning César Cuevas Pérez, Minister-Counselor at the DR Embassy in Haiti. Who said Silsby came to visit him three times asking for an authorization to bring kids to the DR. He...
Truck:
Thanks for your extensive scenario, but I've had my doubts about the "lady lawyer + general" connection from the start.
First, because it came from Puello, who's a compulsive liar, and desperate to distract his audience. "Look, there are big crooks involved!"
About his Salvador...
Thanks, Lambada. That corresponds to what I figured.
And confirms once again that "Pastor" Sainvil's story - that he ran into Silsby at the border in Ouanaminthe on Jan 27 - is unbelievable.

Now, it is possible that the AP...
Lambada - since you're in the DR:
can you give an idea of the driving time
- SDO to Cabarete
- Cabarete to the northern border crossing (Ouanaminthe)
- SDO to the southern border crossing (Malpasse)
I am amazed by the amount of driving Silsby must have done that week.
María Asunción Santos de Lara?
That's the name I found based on d'Adesky's story.
Whether it's her or someone else, how on earth did Silsby meet and communicate with those people, if it was not via Puello?
Welcome, Lambada!
I.B. - I saw it, but don't know what to make of it.
Apparently she was negotiating with El Salvador, but it now seems the US was ahead of the game and will ask the extradition.
But I think that process will take a while.
And here the formal statement from the U.S. Marshals Service:
http://www.usmarshals.gov/news/chron/2010/031910a.htm
They actually confirm that it wasn't till Feb 12 that authorities in Salvador, Canada, or the US for that matter, suddenly discovered where Torres-Puello was hanging out. Were...
Here's a mugshot and article from Hoy, this morning:

Again, police sources claim they had received his fingerprints several months ago, and that they were immediately...
And here's Listin Diario, with a bit of "exageración":

"Dominican police received his fingerprints several months ago from El Salvador"
Really?
