The trial for the crime of Fernando Báez Sosa will have a key audience this Monday. They will testify, among others, the two young people who were detained and were finally dismissed. They are Juan Pedro Guarino, 22, and Alejo Milanesi, 23.
For the eleventh hearing, scheduled to start at 9 am in the Courts of Dolores, eight witnesses were summoned, including parents of the accused.
Sources close to the prosecution said that Guarino and Milanesi will face a “very delicate” statement, since when they are called as witnesses, they have the obligation to tell the truth and with their statements they could incriminate their friends or even incriminate themselves.
Depending on what might happen at the time, this would force the court to suspend their testimony since no one is required to testify against themselves.
“They will have to move within a very fine margin, between telling the truth and not harming their friends and not giving false testimony,” speculated a spokesman with access to the cause of Fernando’s crime.
Another key witness of today’s session will be Tomás Colazo (20), a friend of the defendants and who was identified as “suspect number 11” by the plaintiff lawyer Fernando Burlando.
“In the case of Colazo, it is also a complex situation, for the same reasons as the two young people who were dismissed, to which is added that he was never part of the case, never gave a statement or was questioned or intervened in the framework. of a judicial action that can be emotionally demanding”, explained the judicial spokesman.
The list of witnesses includes Santino Franco Massagli (21), José Aníbal Leguiza (21) and Juan Ignacio Correa Neme (21), three friends of Blas Cinalli (21), one of the eight defendants, with whom he exchanged written messages and audio by the WhatsApp application after the fact.
It should be noted that from the last hearings, messages sent by Cinalli to friends who were not part of the group of defendants emerged, in which he mentioned: “We quarreled. We won against some cheetos, we broke them”, “I think we killed one”, “We hit one with the ‘Perto’, we beat him up, but badly. We came running home”, “We are going to the beach. Preview at home, all the cats are coming” and “I just want to drink wine and smoke flowers”.
What will he say? The mother of Máximo Thomsen declares
Lastly, the mothers of Máximo Thomsen, the most complicated accused, and of Luciano and Ciro Pertossi, will testify under oath to tell the truth before the judges of the Oral Criminal Court (TOC).
Rosalía Zárate, 58 years old and Thomsen’s mother, who was an official in the Zárate municipality and resigned after her son was charged, will be the first relative of a defendant to testify as a witness.
It should be remembered that Marcial Thomsen, Máximo’s father, who is not on the list of declarants and who was present throughout the hearings, chose to speak a few days ago with conciliatory words. “There is great pain on both sides. This is a tragedy for everyone, ”he had commented.
Until now, Thomsen Sr. is the visible face of the most complicated of the defendants. He participated in the first three hearings, some along with his son Facundo, Máximo’s older brother.
The fact that she was called as a witness prevented Thomsen’s mother from witnessing the oral argument. However, on Wednesday, January 4, the woman visited her son in prison, and today her words will be under the magnifying glass of all those present.
Meanwhile, María Paula Cinalli (57), mother of Blas Cinalli and aunt of Luciano (21) and Ciro Pertossi (22), will be the other mother to sit in front of judges María Claudia Castro, Christian Rabaia and Emiliano Lázzari.
WHO ARE THE OTHER PARENTS SUBMITTED
For their part, tomorrow they will continue to testify relatives of the accused, who were proposed as witnesses by the defense of the accused, who is in charge of the lawyer Hugo Tomei and who has the collaboration of Emilia Pertossi, sister of Ciro and Luciano and cousin by Lucas Pertossi.
In this context Héctor Eduardo Benicelli, father of Matías (23); María Alejandra Guillén, mother of Enzo Comelli (22); Erika Edith Pizzatti, mother of Ayrton Viollaz (23) and Mauro Rubén Pertossi, father of Luciano and Ciro Pertossi, are the parents scheduled for tomorrow.
Prosecutor’s sources reported that the parents of the defendants who will testify are ‘concept witnesses’, and that it will be the defense -which summoned them to testify- that will be in charge of demonstrating at trial what the value of their eventual funds may be. contributions regarding the fact analyzed in the judgment.
Finally, it should be noted that according to article 234 of the Buenos Aires Penal Code of Procedure, parents cannot testify against their own children, so it is believed that the accusing party will not ask them questions during the interrogation.
