Overview
- All 12 jurors unanimously found César Mario Alejandro Sena guilty as the author of the killing and deemed his parents, Emerenciano Sena and Marcela Verónica Acuña, primary participants.
- Because the crime was classified as homicide doubly aggravated by the bond and gender-based violence, the three members of the Sena family now face life imprisonment.
- Collaborators Gustavo Obregón and Fabiana Cecilia González were convicted of aggravated concealment, Gustavo Melgarejo was convicted of simple concealment, and Griselda Lucía Reinoso was acquitted and released.
- Key evidence highlighted security footage of Cecilia entering the Sena home on June 2, 2023, and forensic testimony describing remains with extreme calcination consistent with exposure to very high temperatures for hours.
- Judge Dolly Fernández will convene a cesura hearing in the coming days to set the terms for the concealment convictions, and defense lawyers have indicated they will appeal.
