“I think that the motive has to do with this winning thing, I have no doubt. Taking the trophy that Tatiana repeated yesterday. Perhaps their madness was happening there and the violence grew precisely because they were trying to win a trophy that in this case was without a doubt Fernando’s life,” said Burlando as he left the courts this afternoon.
The lawyer stressed that the witnesses “continue to surprise” with data that is “of great value.” In this sense, he highlighted “the revelation” made by police officer Mariano Rolando Vivas, declaring that Máximo Thomsen was the defendant who at the time of the arrests implicated the innocent Pablo Ventura in Fernando’s crime.
Burlando said that the description of one of the witnesses about the moment in which she heard them celebrating Fernando’s crime was “brutal.” “A celebration, incredible, and there they were already aware of the death of Fernando. It is very crazy that they hug each other, that they harangue each other, and on the other hand, Thomsen’s attitude that he was taken out. The rest of the group that came talked about how he liked him I had broken Fernando’s face”, he commented.
When asked what he thought that a policeman declared that the defendants also laughed when the minutes of their arrests were drawn up, Burlando replied: “I don’t want to express myself more, I want all this to end, for there to be an answer for the family and the society that is so concerned”.
