Cristina Kirchner received a final conviction for corruption
The Supreme Court rejected the appeals filed by the defense and upheld the sentence against Cristina Kirchner for corruption. The ruling stated that between 2003 and 2015, a scheme was set up to benefit Lázaro Báez through fraudulent bidding, overpricing, and unfinished projects.
