Santo Imperio Tradicionalista de Creeperópolis v. Marcos Martínez Castro, Miguel Salinas Ortega, José Bolívar Aguirre, y Mariano Alcocer Fraga, commonly called the San Salvador Trials (Creeperian: Juicios de San Salvador), was the most significant series of trials in Creeperian history. Overseen by the Imperial Court of Justice, the San Salvador Trials were held from October 4, 1949, until December 24, 1949.

The San Salvador Trials tried the four most senior leaders of the National Council for Peace and Order from the Creeperian Civil War: Marcos Martínez Castro, Miguel Salinas Ortega, José Bolívar Aguirre, and Mariano Alcocer Fraga, all of whom were captured during the Battle of the Zapatista River, the final battle of the Creeperian Civil War.

Origin

From January 2, 1933, until September 30, 1949, the Creeperian Civil War raged between the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council, commonly called the Romerists, and the National Council for Peace and Order, commonly called the Miguelists. The Romerists advocated for a Creeperian Catholic Fascist government while the Miguelists advocated for an Athiest Communist government. The Catholic Imperial Restoration Council arose victorious by decisively defeating the National Council for Peace and Order on September 30, 1949.

Creation of the Court

The victorious Catholic Imperial Restoration Council established the Imperial Court of Justice to try the leaders of the National Council for Peace and Order on October 4, 1949.

Participants

Seven judges were appointed and each of the seven charges presented had its own prosecutor. There were four defendants.

Judges

Emperor Romero II, Minister of Defense Alfonso Cabañeras Moreno, Chief Mayor Máximo Illescas Freixa, Mayor Antonio Sáenz Heredia, Mayor Ramón Serrano Suñer, Field Marshal Carlos Castillo Armas, and Field Marshal Uxio Aponte Avellaneda. Sources have claimed the court was a kangaroo court.[citation needed]

Anonymous Re-Trial

In 2003, an anonymous source published a self-declared "unbiased re-trial" of the defendants of the San Salvador Trials.

The source was denounced and censored by the Creeperian government.

On December 25, 1949, Marcos Martínez Castro, Miguel Salinas Ortega, José Bolívar Aguirre, and Mariano Alcocer Fraga were all crucified and burned alive in front of the San Salvador Imperial Palace for civilians to watch.

Notes

  1. The Constitution the Imperial Court of Justice abided to was the Constitution which was adopted on October 4, 1949, after the end of the Creeperian Civil War. The Constitution that should have been enforced was the Creeperian Constitution of 1887 but it was disregarded. The judges voted unanimously to uphold the laws of the Creeperian Constitution of 1949 instead of the Creeperian Constitution of 1887.
