Former Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero Denies Wrongdoing in Graft Hearing

Right narrative

Zapatero spent three hours before a judge and failed to weaken a single indicator of criminal conduct. He refused to answer prosecutors, claiming he couldn't recall a key dinner, and offering zero documentation on over a million euros worth of jewels found in his safe. Denying wrongdoing without providing a shred of evidence is merely a stall. As the judge said, this declaration did nothing to address the accusations weighing against him.
