‘Jorge 40’ was one of the ex-comandantes ‘para’ expelled from the Justice and Peace process, so, unlike Salvatore Mancuso, he does not have judicial benefits and faces ordinary penalties for the crimes committed by him and the men under his command, including massacres, disappearances, torture and rape.
Tovar was extradited in May 2008 and sentenced to 16 years for drug trafficking. In the United States, however, he spent 12 years paying his penalty. In Justicia y Paz he had managed to talk about his participation in more than 600 criminal acts, including massacres, displacements and kidnappings.
Some of the massacres that are pointed out to him are that of El Salado, in Carmen de Bolívar (Bolívar), and that of Bahía Portete, in La Guajira.

Although ‘Jorge 40’ has sought to be accepted by the Special Jurisdiction for Peace (JEP), that justice has closed all the doors until now because it considers that the paramilitaries are not within its competence.
