Overview

  • The Tribunal de Enjuiciamiento imposed a 45-year, seven-month and 15-day prison term for aggravated femicide and illicit burial.
  • The court mandated two reparations payments to the victim’s family and imposed a pecuniary sanction on the state.
  • Authorities activated an Amber Alert when relatives reported the mother and her one-year-old daughter missing on July 3, 2020, which led to uncovering the clandestine burial.
  • Prosecutors from the FGESLP’s Specialized Femicide Unit presented forensic evidence showing the child died of blunt-force cranial trauma inflicted by her stepfather.
  • Irma “N” was initially detained but later classified as an indirect victim who acted under duress and was released with protective measures.
