In Houston last week, yet another member of Venezuelan state-run oil company PDVSA’s cabal that was engaged in systemic bribery and corruption was brought to justice. This time it was Cesar Rincon, brother of another felon who had previously pleaded guilty, Roberto Rincon. According to his unsealed indictment, Cesar Rincon admitted that he accepted bribes from his brother and others in exchange for taking official acts in his capacity as general manager of PDVSAโs procurement subsidiary.
