Libya lifts death sentences on medics in HIV case

In what amounts to extortion, Libya held 5 Bulgarian nurses and a Palestinian Doctor "Hostage" for the past 8 years.

They were accused of intentionally infecting 460 children with HIV.

"Confessions" were obtained through torture.

Well, they finally got thier bribe for $460MM and it looks like they will be releasing them shortly.

It sets a very bad precedence by paying them.

BTW...the organization paying: the Benghazi International Fund, which is financed by the European Union, United States, Bulgaria and Libya.

I doubt Libya will be paying any share of this...
