Salta Prosecutor Investigates Funeral Wreath Death Threat at Kindergarten, Orders Protection for Mother

Investigators prioritize forensic testing of the wreath alongside reviews of nearby security cameras to identify those responsible.

Overview

  • Jéssica Juárez found a wreath bearing her name and the phrase “Q. E.P. D.” hanging on the fence of her child’s kindergarten in Cerrillos, Salta.
  • Prosecutor Mónica Viazzi opened the case ex officio through the Cerrillos prosecutor’s office and notified the accused ex-partner to appear for questioning.
  • A fixed police guard was assigned to Juárez’s home while experts examine the wreath, analyze nearby surveillance footage and take witness statements.
  • Authorities are considering the High-Risk Protocol, which would add police monitoring, psychological support and comprehensive assistance for the family.
  • Juárez reports prior harassment, including a July banner calling her a “rompe familia,” and local organizations condemned the latest act as an intimidation meant to instill fear.
