Overview

  • On July 8, expert psychiatrist José Cabrera testified that antidepressants mixed with alcohol could have impaired Mouliaá’s cognition and confirmed she had no ulterior motives in filing her complaint.
  • Psychologist José Capote ratified his finding that Mouliaá did not consent to the acts she describes but disclosed he initially offered his services to Errejón before reviewing the case evidence.
  • Errejón’s defense underscored that no eyewitness testimony supports Mouliaá’s version of events and noted her reliance on two paid expert reports.
  • Conflicting accounts from party attendees have led Judge Carretero to subpoena an audio recording from one organizer for further verification.
  • The judge is now weighing these divergent expert analyses and contested evidence to assess the credibility of the assault allegation under Spain’s ‘only yes is yes’ consent law.
