Overview

• Guillermo “Paraguayo” Romero Molinas, who was 17 at the time of the crime, was sentenced to 12 years for his role in the fatal attempted robbery in Villa Centenario.
• The ruling followed a juicio abreviado recommended by the prosecutor and the family’s lawyer, and the teen remains held in the Florencio Varela penitentiary.
• Umma Aguilera, the daughter of a federal police custodian for Security Minister Patricia Bullrich, was shot on January 22, 2024, as her father tried to drive away from armed assailants.
• The victim’s mother voiced disappointment that the sentence fell short of the 15 years requested and criticized aspects of the juvenile court’s handling under Judge Marta Pascual.
• Earlier this year three adults—Ariel Acuña Vega, Axel Emiliano “Pelusa” Rojas, and Miguel Pastor “Patoto” Romero Molinas—received life terms, while Nahuel Santiago Coman got five years as a secondary participant.
