Roberto León

Roberto Eduardo León Ramírez (born 11 February 1951) is a Chilean lawyer and Christian Democratic politician.

He served as deputy of the Republic, for district No. 36, which included the communes of Curicó, Vichuquén, Licantén, Hualañé, and Teno. He was up for reelection in November 2017 for the new district 17 of the Maule Region, an objective that he did not meet and ended his term on March 10, 2018.

On 6 September 2017, a national scandal broke out when various media outlets accused nearly 40 parliamentarians, including Roberto León, of having accepted advisory reports with paragraphs copied verbatim from the internet or books, without crediting the writer of the original source. The five reports from Roberto León that record plagiarism were received by the legislator in 2014, and paid $10.9 million. Provided by Wikipedia
