In this Thursday's episode of EnStockTV, we spoke with Gabriela Pizarro, editor-in-chief of Reportea, to dissect one of the most sensitive scandals to have rocked the Chilean judiciary: the networks of Ángela Vivanco, Sergio Yáber, and Gabriel Zaliasnik.

Did a veritable "appointments agency" exist within the judicial system? Pizarro addresses the background surrounding former minister Ángela Vivanco—who, she explains, may have committed bribery—the power attributed to Sergio Yáber, known as "The Godfather" of the judiciary, and the dealings and relationships that allowed them to build an influential network within the justice system.

We also examine the role of Gabriel Zaliasnik in the network of Hermosilla, Chile's current ambassador to Israel, and the evidence pointing to the level of influence he allegedly attained within this scheme. The secrets, names, and connections of a power network that continues to shake the Chilean justice system.

In addition, we delve into another revealing investigation by Reportea regarding prohibited chimneys in Santiago and the unequal enforcement by the Regional Health Authority (Seremi de Salud). While hundreds of inspections and fines are concentrated in working-class neighborhoods, affluent areas in the eastern part of the city receive up to 30 times fewer inspections, despite high firewood consumption. Why does the authority enforce regulations so differently depending on the municipality?
