gcreptile 11,066 Posted December 25, 2017 Regardless of whether he still dies this year or not, congratulations to the Dead Cow for his good judgement (and fantastic DDP performance). Could 2018 be the "year of Peru"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dead Cow 620 Posted December 25, 2017 His son Kenji has been posting videos of his father since his release. Here's Alberto receiving the news of his pardon And here he is wishing you a merry Christmas He seems frail, but I think he'll survive this hospitalisation and see 2018 with relative ease. Should definitely be considered for the 2018 Deathlist though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deadsox 894 Posted December 25, 2017 Much as I like Fujimori as a candidate, he has the classic "exaggerate your illness for a pardon" syndrome. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the case seems a bit similar to that of Mr al-Megrahi. That cunto did have an incurable illness, but it took it almost 3 years after his release to finish him off. In the BBC article linked in the post above, the president's statement claims that he'll soon die Doctors, the statement added, had "determined that Mr Fujimori suffers from a progressive, degenerative and incurable illness and that prison conditions represent a grave risk to his life". Now that description is pretty vague, but it likely rules out terminal cancer and point to a chronic disease like Parkinson's or Lou Gehrig's disease that would decrease his quality of life and his life expectancy, but wouldn't mean that he is a dead-cert for 2018. (Mind you, he can also die this week.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,232 Posted December 26, 2017 Yes, and "prison conditions represent a grave risk to his life" implies that he might survive if he leaves prison. Although it might be a translation thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plenty of people in Peru don't think he's such a good guy (and are making themselves known in the streets) and I'd be hard pressed to think of ANY criminals who wouldn't lie to get out of punishment.

The Mad Hatter 1,093 Posted August 8, 2018 I don't think he'll survive this one. His heart is struggling because of the tumor is putting such a massive strain on his body. In response to @Zsa Zsa's leg s post above me it all makes sense now they were only observing it because they knew he was fucked given how chronically ill he is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
