The showdown unfolded during a parliamentary forum, called “Comisión Total,” and convened by Rivera Schatz. What we are not going to permit is pillage and corruption,” Rivera Schatz responded to the accusations. There were some surprise moments — such as when Rivera Schatz delivered the first blow by presenting a signed affidavit from former Health Secretary Carlos Mellado. When Rivera Schatz pressed him on who these board members were, Domenech stated that they were Torres and him. There will be another “Comisión Total,” where Rivera Schatz will probably call Mellado, Delgado, and Torres Nieves to testify, among others, although no date has been set.
