Pedro García Redondo was sentenced to 90 years in prison for the deaths of 37 people in the 1980 burning of the Spanish Embassy in Guatemala. He was also found responsible for attempted murder and the deaths of two students. Among the victims was Vicente Menchú, father of Nobel Peace Prize winner Rigoberta Menchú, who saw the verdict as a step towards dignifying Guatemala's legal system. Redondo is already serving a 70-year sentence for the disappearance of two students, and his lawyer plans to appeal. The incident involved protesters entering the embassy to denounce military atrocities, and Redondo, a police chief at the time, ordered that no one be allowed to leave or be rescued.
