What did the victim’s friend say?
Julieta, a friend of the victim, spoke with TN and recounted the ordeal that the young woman suffered hours before the tragedy: “Everything begins on Friday at 11:30 p.m. She leaves and goes in the direction of the house, in Monte Grande. Two hours later she calls a colleague of hers telling him that they wanted to rob her and they beat her. He went to look for her and took her back to her work, in Liniers, where he asked for an Uber to return home. When she arrived, she sent me two recordings telling me that she had been hit and she sent me a photo of her with her face beaten up.
I suggested that he put on ice and we agreed that he was going to rest. This was at 3:30 in the morning. What I understand is that he went to look for her at 4 in the morning. At that time he sent me a message saying ‘I love you’. I don’t know if she was already in the car with him at that time. Hours later, she was already admitted to the hospital, ”Julieta continued, and in addition, she assured that Evelyn always said that the attacks came from an alleged thief so as not to involve Barboza.
