Lydia Moisa He is 62 years old, has three children and six grandchildren. It is after 9:00 p.m. this Sunday, February 5, the woman walks through the intersection of Marconi and Pellegrini streets: she arranges cans with burnt oil in rows on the sidewalk and lights them with a match. Within hours of the Oral Criminal Court No. 1 of Dolores communicating the verdict to the eight rugby players accused of killing Fernando Báez Sosa on January 18, 2020 in Villa Gesell, the neighbor organized a spontaneous vigil in the Club Ferro neighborhood of the city. Minutes after the light from the fire illuminated the blocks of the Club Ferro neighborhood, the Grace Sosathe victim’s mother.
“The idea was to leave a light to illuminate Justice. Let’s hope that the decision of the judges leaves peace to Fernando’s parentsLydia told infobae minutes before melting into a hug with Graciela.
In the middle of the silence of the whole block, at the end of the hug, Graciela went up to a tree where there was an image of her son and caressed it. After her there was a general applause from the neighbors who respectfully approached her. Already surrounded by television cameras, Fernando’s mother spoke to the media.

“I feel the strength of the people to keep going. This vigil that they put together for Fernando touches the depths of my heart.. I know I’m not going to get it back. I just want tomorrow to be a day when I can have a little peace in my heart, ”Fernando’s mother said hours before hearing the verdict against the eight rugby players accused of killing her son.
“This is a neighborhood for older people. We are a group of 22 neighbors who have come together to help each other through the pandemic and continue to do so afterwards. We need to be supportive. A week ago we had been macerating the idea of doing something to show solidarity with Fernando’s parents and well, the idea of the vigil arose to send them good energy: that they feel that the town of Dolores embraces them as a family”, Lidia explained to this outlet.
According to Lidia, who was born and raised in Dolores, the city is already used to living with “resonant cases”, as was the case of José Luis Cabezas at the time. But “this one”, says the woman in reference to the case of Fernando Báez Sosa, “he touched all of us very deeply, very deeply. Especially to those of us who are parents and grandparents”.
