Overview
- Proceedings began in Resistencia, Chaco, where seven people stand trial over the killing of Cecilia Strzyzowski, including César, Emerenciano and Marcela Acuña on aggravated homicide charges.
- Gloria Romero addressed the jurors, called for life sentences for the three principal defendants and became unwell during her testimony.
- Speaking from the Don Santiago women’s facility, Marcela Acuña apologized to Romero and insisted she did not commit any crime.
- Acuña criticized prosecutor Martín Bogado’s opening as false, said she intends to testify and raised concerns about her son César’s psychiatric struggles and self‑harm.
- Acuña has been detained for over two years after hunger strikes and letters asserting innocence, and the court schedule points to a potential November 20 verdict.
