Spanish term or phrase: cenagal
je traduis actuellement un article sur le cas Madoff et je suis à court d'idées pour traduire cette expression "en el cenagal de la estafa". Voici la phrase: Al margen de que no falta quien espera que de repente se abran los cielos y un rayo con el emblema del Mossad castigue al truhán de forma mucho más contundente de lo que podrían hacerlo los tribunales norteamericanos, la reciente noticia de que la Fundación Elie Wiesel ha perdido la práctica totalidad de sus fondos en el cenagal de la estafa no hace sino realzar la pregunta que el pasado domingo se hacía Frank Rich en The New York Times."
Des suggestions? Merci et bonne année!
