Overview
- Federal prosecutor Diego Luciani asked Tribunal Oral Federal 2 to apply double aggravation and recidivism under aggravated robbery charges, seeking a five-year sentence for Damián Berruet.
- Security footage recorded Berruet forcing the lock of a white Toyota SW4 assigned to President Horacio Rosatti on May 30, 2024, in the Palacio de Tribunales parking lot.
- Authorities seized a signal jammer, a 30-centimeter screwdriver and a modified Allen key during a June 2024 raid on the suspect’s hotel rooms.
- Luciani argued the attempted theft formed part of a pattern of harassment against Rosatti since 2019, citing break-ins, hacking attempts, banners and explosive devices.
- Judge Néstor Costabel will deliver the verdict in the case before Tribunal Oral Federal 2 later this week.
