Angie Rodríguez and Deicy Jiménez coordinate reports on alleged network

--- The context --- Angie Rodríguez, former director of the Administrative Department of the Presidency, met on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, with Deicy Jiménez, who has reported an alleged sexual exploitation network and alleged deliveries of state contracts in exchange for sexual favors during the government of Gustavo Petro. These are unproven allegations, now before the authorities, with no judicial decision so far. --- The facts --- According to Rodríguez, the meeting was brief and made it possible to identify common elements between the claims both women have raised about alleged irregularities within the Presidency. According to Rodríguez, the two decided to coordinate actions to provide new data to the justice system. According to Jiménez, her public complaints concern an alleged network and alleged irregularities in the delivery of state contracts, which, according to her complaint, would be linked to members of the Petro administration. Rodríguez raised questions about events that, according to her, would have occurred inside the Presidency. Jiménez did not testify before the Prosecutor's Office at the proceeding scheduled for November 3, because her lawyer, Andrés Felipe Caballero, resigned from representing her for security reasons, after reporting threats. The proceeding was postponed, under Marcela Abadía, third prosecutor delegated to the Supreme Court, with no new date reported. --- The positions --- According to Caballero, his decision seeks to keep attention from drifting away from the safety of the complainant and of other possible declarants, and he said in public statements that the priority is ensuring they can testify and provide evidence. Jiménez already testified before the Special Instruction Chamber of the Supreme Court on October 29, 2026, in a proceeding lasting nearly four hours. There, according to her testimony, she ratified her complaints about the alleged network, said she met the then senator in 2019 through an adult website, and mentioned former senator María José Pizarro, who, according to Jiménez, would have known the circumstances of her hiring into a Legislative Work Unit. Among the contracts mentioned by the complainant is one for nearly $34 millones to support work for the First Vice Presidency of the Senate, then headed by Pizarro, always according to Jiménez. She also committed to hand over her cell phone for inspection by the Judicial Police, with the date still pending. --- What remains unknown --- Still unknown are the new date for the proceeding before the Prosecutor's Office, whether Jiménez will have new legal representation, and what the authorities will determine. The outcome of the committed cell phone inspection is also unknown. --- Unanswered questions --- When will the proceeding for Jiménez before the Prosecutor's Office be rescheduled? What new data will Rodríguez and Jiménez provide to the justice system, as they announced? What will the authorities determine about complaints that still have no judicial decision? --- EPM analysis --- The value of this meeting will be measured by concrete steps before the authorities, not by announcements. Coordinating accounts does not prove any fact: it is up to the Prosecutor's Office and the Supreme Court to test testimony, documents, and the contracts mentioned, with full guarantees for complainants and those named. 📌 EPM Take: In EPM's view, these complaints must be handled as what they are so far: serious allegations made by their complainants, pending before the authorities, with no judicial decision confirming or dismissing them. Protecting the safety of those who testify is essential, as is guaranteeing due process for every person named. The public deserves verified answers, with the presumption of innocence intact, and not early convictions built on accounts still to be tested.
