Overview
- Susana Trimarco said she received a late‑night call from Asunción about a homeless woman who could be her daughter and was sent a photograph she declined to release due to the woman’s condition.
- Her legal team has notified Federal Justice, which can use Marita Verón’s stored DNA and fingerprint records for identification.
- Trimarco described the woman in the photo as severely emaciated and disfigured, stressing the need for caution until forensic verification is complete.
- The development is the latest in a decades‑long investigation into Verón’s 2002 disappearance, which was linked to a human‑trafficking network.
- Parallel forensic work continues, including checks of unidentified burials, while prior court rulings in 2013 secured multiple convictions tied to the trafficking case.
