Overview
- Judge Sergio Carraro ordered preventive detention for M.B.A., 16, after she was imputed as co-author of a homicide qualified by premeditated collaboration, alevosía and ensañamiento.
- A 14-year-old identified as L.R.P. was also imputed, though his age makes him legally not punishable under juvenile law.
- The closed-door hearings were held in Santa Fe, and the detained teen will be housed in a Specialized Center for Minors with public defender Andrea Alberto appointed.
- Prosecutor Francisco Cecchini said three people participated in the killing, with a third suspect not yet definitively identified and believed to be a minor.
- Investigators describe the probe as in its early stages, say motives have not been determined, and credit homicide and femicide brigades with key investigative work.
