Read it:

Romania after 1989 lost its savings to pyramid schemes, handed a royal farm and a stretch of beach to claimants in deals its courts later found criminal, and then, for a few years, put its rulers on trial: a prime minister, the governing party's leader, ministers, mayors, the head of its own organized-crime prosecutors. Then the rules changed. An ordinance at night, a chief prosecutor removed, and a statute of limitations that closed thousands of cases, while the convicted settled in Greece, Italy and France. Covers Liviu Dragnea and the Social Democratic Party, Elena Udrea and the Gala Bute case, Alina Bica and DIICOT, Remus Truică, Beny Steinmetz and the Băneasa royal farm, Florian Tudor and the Riviera Maya case, and Hexi Pharma and Gazeta Sporturilor.
