Overview
- Official autopsies released this weekend confirm Lara Gutiérrez, Morena Verdi and Brenda del Castillo were bound, gagged and tortured before they were killed.
- Lara died from hemorrhagic shock caused by cutting wounds, Morena from asphyxia due to ligature strangulation with cervical spinal injury, and Brenda from cardiorespiratory arrest caused by severe head trauma with postmortem abdominal dismemberment.
- Investigators, according to a case file cited by TN, are seeking two Peruvian men aged 39 and 45 suspected as material perpetrators, with indications they fled to José C. Paz after the killings.
- Several people remain detained, including alleged organizer Tony Janzen Valverde (“Pequeño J”) and Matías Ozorio, while prosecutors conduct forensic analysis of seven seized phones to determine individual roles.
- Relatives have been advised by their lawyer Fernando Burlando not to read or view the autopsy materials due to their graphic nature.
