Does anyone know what finally happened with Edward Salcedo from last year?

JCE found some alteration on Salcedo's Birth certificate, they don't explain how it was done, they just say that the forging was done to make the paper look on time and not late. I'm no lawyer but I was explained that over here parents have 30 days to get their kids a birth certificate, after that window any birth certificate carries the label of "tardia" or late. Over here "late" birth ceritificates scare off major league teams because in the past most fake Certificates were of the "late" type.

Also is interesting to know that in the second link, the JCE claims that Scott Boras was aware that Eduard Stanly had a different age, because the mother of the player told the agent.

Now with the street Rumors:

I have heard that the JCE has revised the case and now claims that the player is fine, (I don't know if they say that he has a new correct age or the old one was correct) however the U.S. Consulate as far as 2 month ago refused to give the player the Visa.

I have also heard that Scott Boras is doing everything possible to get Salcedo in the U.S.


Finally I saw the kid or man in some tryouts, his BP performance is truly spectacular, in games the story was different but maybe I just got to see him in a couple of bad games.
