Jujuy Investigators Find Two More DNA Profiles in Jurado Case

Results do not match three reported missing men, pointing to additional unidentified victims.

Overview

  • Matías Jurado remains detained and formally charged with aggravated homicide in the killings of Jorge Anachuri and Sergio Sosa.
  • Two new genetic profiles were built from blood on a sheet used as a curtain and from a sand bag in the home, and they do not match Miguel Quispe, Juan Carlos González or Juan José Ponce.
  • Only about 20% of the seized biological material has been analyzed so far, with the EAAF and provincial labs processing more than 200 pieces of evidence.
  • Luminol tests indicated cleaned blood on furniture and a facón yielded a DNA trace, alongside burned remains and other biological fragments recovered at the property.
  • Investigators are pursuing additional leads, including analysis of seized phones and transit-card movements, as they assess the possibility of more victims and await further forensic and psychiatric reports.
