Overview
- Judge Augusto José Paz Almonacid ordered the dismissal and acquittal of Sebastián Sosa, Braian Cufré, Abiel Osorio and José Ignacio Florentín in the high‑profile case.
- He rejected the complainant’s bid to nullify forensic analyses of phones tied to her circle and relied on that material and a psychological report to conclude the encounter was consensual.
- The accuser’s legal team, led by Patricia Neme and colleagues, announced they will challenge the ruling, so appellate review is expected.
- During the hearing, the Public Prosecutor’s Office supported dismissal only for Sosa, while the judge extended the ruling to all four defendants.
- The resolution followed lengthy hearings focused on the validity of ECIF phone examinations, and the court ordered financial bonds returned once the decision becomes final.
