The judge in charge of the case against Venezuela's former authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro rejected on Thursday tossing out his case, according to a new report. Venezuelan outlet El Nacional noted that judge Alvin Hellerstein voiced his decision during a hearing on Thursday, but has to confirm it in an official manner. It went on to detail that Maduro's hair was grayer than before and appeared to be more thin and serious than in his first hearing, which took place in January.
