A song for the unfairly condemned Alfonso Plazas Vega (Colombia)

Today retired Colonel Alfonso Plazas Vega has been condemned to 30 years of prison without having been given a fair trial and without any real proof of him being guilty. I wrote a song for him titled "Diga Usted Coronel" ("You Tell Me Colonel") and it talks about how it seems impossible to get justice when the same people that are incharge of providing this justice have their own agendas and prejudice...there's no such thing as perfect justice.
