One of them even paid the Brazilian authorities $11,000 to drop the charges. It was a bribe no matter how you look at it.

This should be ALL the proof you need to understand that Brazil is a third (maybe fourth) world country!!

In Brazil, for NON-violent crimes, it is in their legal code that if you pay a "donation" to a charity (not sure who gets to pick the charity, but I doubt it is the person accused of a crime), then the charges are dropped.

You can call it a fee, a donation, a bribe, extortion, whatever you want, but knowing that this type of stuff is "legal" tells me all I need to know about Brazil - they are corrupt and the rich can do, and get away with, anything they want - PERIOD!
