Overview
- Security-camera footage from September 6 in Buenos Aires shows Tony Janzen “Pequeño J” Valverde walking with 15-year-old victim Lara Gutiérrez, and the full sequence is now in the judicial file, prosecutor Adrián Arribas said.
- Arribas said extradition from Peru will not be accelerated, as Valverde remains held at Cañete prison following his September 30 capture in Pucusana in a joint Peru–Argentina–Interpol operation.
- A Peruvian forensic evaluation reports psychopathic or antisocial and narcissistic traits in Valverde, noting high manipulative capacity and aggression, and the document has been shared with investigators.
- Investigators met with Federal Police to advance forensic analysis of seized phones, with the prosecutor indicating possible updates this week.
- A minor witness told police she saw Gutiérrez and the suspect interact at a 24-hour private party, and alleged lieutenant Matías Agustín Ozorio was expelled to Argentina from Peru and declined to testify when questioned.
