\a genetics of justice\ by julia alvarez:
on may 30, 1961, nine months after our escape from our homeland, the group of plotters with whom my father had been associated assassinated the dictator. actually, dominicans do not refer to the death as an assassination but as an ajusticiamiento, a bringing to justice. finally, after thirty - one years, trujillo was brought to justice, found guilty, and executed.

○ the circumstances under which trujillo died.
