Lo que nos cuesta la justicia

Cada día escuchamos noticias cachondas de los juzgados, de la Justicia o de cómo quieran llamarlo.  Leemos, por ejemplo, este titular: Ruiz-Mateos es detenido y trasladado a Palma por orden de la Juez . Entendemos así que día sí y día también los  distintos cuerpos policiales arrestan a personas reclamadas por diferentes juzgados de toda España,  que son puestas a disposición del juez de guardia del lugar donde son localizados. Ese juez  les toma declaración y les pone en libertad  o  les manda a prisión a la espera de que el competente decida lo que sea.
