Now to Latin America. The Inter-American Court of Human Rights has rejected a request by US citizen Lori Berenson to review its ruling that upheld her 20-year sentence in Peru for allegedly helping antigovernment forces and “treason against the fatherland.” It is reportedly Berenson’s last formal avenue of appeal. In a decision issued in November, the Costa Rica-based court rejected Berenson’s arguments that Peru violated her rights in a 2001 civilian retrial. Berenson and her family say she is innocent of any crime and that she was arrested because she opposed the government of Alberto Fujimori. She was tried by a hooded military judge and was not allowed to see any evidence against her. She is scheduled for release in November 2015, a few weeks after her 46th birthday.
