After 13 years, the Colombian justice system has finally found former Colombian president Álvaro Uribe Vélez guilty of abuse of process and bribery of a public official, uncovering his ties to paramilitaries. During a 10-hour trial, a small group of Uribe supporters gathered in front of the courthouse. Amid prayers to God, insults to an antagonist group, and an attack on a photojournalist, they gradually dissolved as their hopes faded.
