Photo Shows 'Pequeño J' With Teen Victim Weeks Before Triple Femicide

Investigators now expect several more arrests based on cellphone forensics.

Overview

  • A security camera in Buenos Aires' Flores neighborhood captured Tony Janzen Valverde Victoriano and 15-year-old Lara Gutiérrez together on September 6, and the image was added to the case file.
  • Prosecutor Adrián Arribas said data from seized phones points to at least three or four more suspects, with new searches and witness statements scheduled this week.
  • Nine people are detained, including Valverde Victoriano held in Peru awaiting extradition and alleged lieutenant Matías Agustín Ozorio, who was transferred to Argentina and refused to testify.
  • Authorities continue to probe possible drug or exploitation links, though the prosecutor emphasized these remain hypotheses without concrete proof.
  • Witnesses and evidence indicate the three victims were enticed to a purported party with promises of payment before they were killed and buried in Florencio Varela.
