Judge Upholds Preventive Detention for Wife and Son of ‘Lord Pádel’ in State of Mexico

The ruling cites ongoing danger to the instructor, prompting the defense to pursue an amparo.

Overview

  • After a roughly 10-hour review hearing in Tlalnepantla, the court kept Karla Alejandra “N” and Germán “N” in custody at the Barrientos prison.
  • The judge found the defense’s new testimonies and a criminalistics expert insufficient to show the risk to the victim and a witness had objectively decreased.
  • Prosecutors argued that procedural risks persist, leading the court to maintain justified preventive detention.
  • The case stems from the July 19 recorded assault on instructor Israel Morales at Club Alfa Pádel, for which all four defendants were linked to process for qualified attempted homicide.
  • Alejandro “N” and associate Othón “N” remain free under federal amparos as the case moves toward an intermediate hearing scheduled for October.
