Message to INFODIO readers: investigative journalism, which is what this site does, takes lots of time. Visiting media looking for a quick run down on Venezuela's gargantuan corruption, have the decency to at least cite the source when plagiarising this site's content without attribution (exhibit Reuters here and here, exhibit Bloomberg here, exhibit OCCRP here). To all readers, do the right thing, the honest thing: support independent investigative journalism, help us expose rampant corruption. Note added 28/06/2021: impostors are using this site's former editor's full name, and a fake email address (alek.boyd.arregui@gmail.com) to send copyright infringement claims / take down requests to web hosting companies (exhibit Hostgator). The attempt is yet another effort paid by corrupt thugs to erase information about their criminal activities. Infodio.com has no issues with other websites / journalists using / posting information published here, so long as the source is properly cited.

Deranged Rudy Giuliani speaks against client Derwick Associates

It doesn't get more embarrassing than this for Rudy Giuliani, does it? Giuliani went once to El Alamin, a castle in the outskirts of Madrid, to meet and get hired by Alejandro Betancourt, CEO of Derwick Associates. Giuliani then lobbied former AG Bill Barr, to get Betancourt off DoJ's hook. But irrelevance is a bitch, isn't it? Now, for 300 quid, Giuliani can be booked to do cameos, and so someone out there with a good sense of humour and a better grasp of Giuliani's handicaps hired him to speak against Derwick Associates, his very own client. This someone provided Giuliani with a list of people that have investigated, exposed and sued Derwick over the years. Angus Berwick was included in the list, likely to bank on Reuters' (entirely plagiarised) "special report" on Betancourt. This site was mentioned along Cesar Batiz, who broke the story of corrupt procurement involving Derwick in 2011, Orlando Avendaño, who reported on Juan Guaido's father's presence in El Alamin when Giuliani was visiting, Thor Halvorssen and Otto Reich, both of whom have sued Derwick.
