Mexican judge was to take a $2 million bribe. He was arrested in Colombia

Luis Benítez Alcántara, a Colombian judge, was arrested for allegedly accepting a $2 million bribe to release Andrew Clark, a suspected drug dealer. Clark, linked to former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding, faces serious charges including drug trafficking and murder. Following the bribe, Clark was released but was later re-arrested and extradited to the U.S. for prosecution. U.S. authorities plan to seek Benítez's extradition, with potential prison sentences of up to 15 years for each of the nine charges against him. The case highlights ongoing issues of corruption among public officials aiding drug traffickers.
