Nicholas Sarkozy fights to free Florence 'the monster’ Cassez from Mexican jail


http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/article7026362.ece

A French woman named Florence Cassez has been jailed for life in Mexico for being accused of belonging to a kidnap gang called the Zodiacs. This incident has filled her fellow Frenchmen with indignation and has made the relationship tense between the two countries. Cassez has been in prison since 2005 writes in a book of her despair at the thought of spending the rest of her life in prison. President Nicolas Sarkozy believes she has committed no crime and has said that the Mexican authorities are "making fun of us." Sarkozy has written letters so President Felipe Calderon, which seemed to have hardened Mexico against them. It seems as if tensions are high between these countries, and this is definitely not a good thing in the long run.
