La Plata Court Grants Conditional Release to Elizabeth Rodrigo in Exploitation Case

A divided appeals panel found no procedural risk, allowing her to await further proceedings under a sworn undertaking.

Overview

  • Judge Juan Pablo Masci executed the order to free Rodrigo on excarcelación under caución juratoria, instructing Prison Unit No. 61 in Magdalena to release her.
  • Her release conditions include surrendering her passport, a ban on leaving the country, and monthly check-ins at the La Plata court before the 5th.
  • Sala III of the La Plata criminal chamber approved the measure in a 2–1 vote, with Judges Fernando Mateos and Alejandro Villordo in the majority and Juan Benavides dissenting.
  • The court narrowed her alleged conduct to photographing women and posting content on an adult offering page rather than coordinating or recruiting for a network.
  • The wider investigation continues from the August 27 operation involving 13 raids, three additional arrests, the assistance of 12 women, and seizures of cash and electronic devices.
