Allegations of Mistreatment[edit]

This is a very detailed section that has little directly to do with Menendez, and more to do with the Argentine military's campaign as a whole. As such I suggest splitting that into a different article, or moving it to an article that's better suited, and also trimming a lot of the primary sources.

Actually ex-Brigadier-General Mario Menéndez may end up doing time in jail. This online Argentine newspaper article along with many others I will be able to provide over the weekend classify him as a "repressor":

This Argentine online news article goes to the extreme and calls him a torturer and murderer of conscripts:
