Alberto Fernández Pushes Back in New YouTube Interview as Gender-Violence Case Nears Trial Decision

The case sits at an advanced pre‑trial stage with a request for oral proceedings awaiting Judge Julián Ercolini’s decision.

Overview

  • In an interview on Roxana Kreimer’s YouTube channel, Fernández alleged that Fabiola Yañez asked for an apartment and money to avoid filing a complaint.
  • He asserted that Yañez was induced to denounce him and cited a supposed multimillion‑dollar documentary offer as a motivation.
  • He claimed witnesses said Yañez’s bruises were from falls linked to alcohol and alleged she took photos to use against him, while criticizing Judge Ercolini for not weighing those points.
  • Fernández remains processed for aggravated serious and minor injuries and coercive threats, a ruling already confirmed by the Federal Chamber.
  • Prosecutors have asked to elevate the case to an oral public trial, and a conviction at trial could carry a sentence of up to 15 years.
