Elba Esther Gordillo, also known as Mexico's teacher, was apprehended on Tuesday at the airport in Toluca, west of Mexico City. Its been years since she become the National Education Workers Union leader - and Mexico's most powerful women - in 1989. And it all have come to an end.
Accused of a $200 million fraud, remained behind bars on Wednesday after a judge decided against granting her bail according to the seriousness of the allegations.
So it seems that she will remain behind bars as long as her sentency says.
Its important to mention that Gordillo's arrest came a day after the Mexican government signed a broad education reform into law.
Lopez Obrador mantain that this an atempt for a corrupt president to gain credibility, others aplaude the fact that she has finally got what she deserve no matter why.
Arresting her is something that should have been done a long ago but the circunstances make this detention really suspicious. Without a doubt she is guilty of every charge, but why now? Why with Peña as president? Some say this is an strategical movement to gain mexican people respect and loyalty, but what experts question is with what objective? Truth is that this strategy was used by the worst president Mexico has ever had, Salinas, in his time he did the same thing, putting big names behind bars. This fact togheter with the impression of Peña being a Salinas puppet have put many to wonder, whats next?
